A Life Too Long Poem by Uriah Hamilton

A Life Too Long

Rating: 5.0


A cold day freezes
My desperate thoughts
In a lonely place.

I can hear
A sad church bell chime
In a forlorn corner
Of this miserable city.

I never want
To live long enough
To forget
Kissing your lips
Lovelier than chardonnay

Or the intoxicating
Lightheadedness
Of seeing you
In your white sweater
And being swayed
By the sensual fragrance
Of your perfume.

Life is too long for this stopover! ...........Uriah can we ask the stonemason to melt this heart? Love is a bond but we cannot let go? I love this poem very much.
