Strangely, I confess I miss the memory of you. After all these years you would have thought you'd not be a factor in my mind; but you are and I still see your face glowing passionately at me after making love.We were so young and innocent, and less confined by lapses in taste and refinement. That is the great mystery of age, that as we get older we are anticipated to draw between the lines and hide out emotions in a bottle. Even thought he bottle is clear glass and we can see out as well as in, still confinement is just as bad as freedom. I remember stroking your mind with tender touches of open conversation. I think that is what I miss the most. For hours we'd talk, converse, share, open our souls at one another. Making love was really just an after-thought, an extension of our conversations.I cannot recall where it began to go off; where we began to lose touch and somehow forgive one another. That seems the tangled weave of reality that one way or another we neglected to be present for one another.So, naturally, as time progressed we became less and less meaningful to one another. Yet here I am, years after we have gone, still remembering you.

Still Remembering You
I flow through you inside and out of you filling my cup with the totality of your passion through the wishing well of devotion I am captured. Flying as if I was made of airplane metal My song is your name and my dream is your hand holding mine, an echo of my love for you I flow inside and out of your silence around and about your words Every song I hear somehow is a vision of you Intoxicated I feel as if every wine bottle on the planet has filled me I am full no room for anyone else no desire to be with any other woman I flow through you inside and out of you and in very way you surround me

Inside And Out
Monday saw me smiling, beginning of the week. New five days, new adventures. Tuesday saw me grinning, second day of the week. Long day yesterday, long day ahead. Wednesday saw me smiling, **** day had arrived. Two more days, weekend calling, hurrah! Thursday saw me getting paid, great day to BE! Money spent, bills underpaid. Friday saw me hurting to get the day done Weekend here, two days off. But alas, after those two days it starts all over again

Seven Days In A Week
Well it is Sunday tomorrow. The clock is ticking down. Mass in the morning, sleeping in the afternoon. Dinner roasting, pen in hand, plans in making. I think I'm going to write the greatest poem ever written. It is trailing inside of me even as I write these words. I can feel its' gripping force capturing words I'm trying to use. Monday will come and Monday will go. When will these words get written down? Perhaps next week? Perhaps next year? Perhaps when I'm feeble and old? Maybe the words are just waiting for a typical Sunday type of mood? Who knows? But I do know, somewhere inside of me is the greatest poem ever written!
