My Romantic Expectation Poem by Jason Bradley

Like a burning elation
When you walk into my eyes
It seared to expectation
But the sun inside dies

And I hold my breath
In hope that you notice
It could be my death
The greatest blindfold is bliss

Bad things happen to the good
Why don't I have the best
If everything lies as it should
My mind can be at rest

The months will destroy me
But you'll flourish and love
I'll be lost inside the sea
In a kingdom you will be of

Cherubim and light from above
I'll keep my place alone
Not knowing of the word love
The hope that I've kept is done

Bad things happen to good people
Then why are you not mine
If the good must take the evil
Ever keep from me a sign
