Shadows stretch long upon frosty earth,
The warming kiss of the sun a distant memory,
Darkness has become master of day,
Coldness smothers all living things,
...
Yesterday I wanted to write you a sweet sonnet,
But my mind grew blank and my hands grew idle,
Whilst I slept I dreamt for you an epic love story,
Yet my fingers were too dreamy to type these words,
...
In this perfect world I feel a presence surrounding me,
I am embraced in the arms of a love so devine,
Her heart beats against mine, fingers caressing my soul,
In gasping breaths I inhale whispers of flawless passion,
...
The day began like any other,
Yet fate had already set her wheels in motion,
Our path to destiny chosen long ago,
Time and time over have I relived that day,
...
The night sky is illuminated by the stars,
I awake from my slumber to observe a sleeping world,
The past has faded into the mists of time,
Only the present holds any reality as I stare into the abyss,
...
Forbidden Love...
It's wrong that I should love you,
Yet my heart knows that I do.
...
Am I just a forgotten shadow of life?
For sunrise seems to pay me no heed,
I arise to a new day unnoticed once again.
To set about my daily chores,
...
Like ingredients in some magical cosmic recipe,
I pour my words onto a blank empty page,
My fingers caressing the letters on each key,
Like the instruments in an orchestra without sound,
...
Each of us are flowers in the garden of life we bloom,
We all bring a different light to brighten the daily gloom.
We all posess great potential to inspire our fellow man,
To offer peace and love is a choice we all should plan.
...
I think that I must be invisible,
For I have waited at love's doorway.
Yet you have merely passed me by
Like a lazy summer afternoon nap...
...
