Was doing just fine
Lost in the crowd
Page after page
When your song came on

Instead of turning it
I let it sink in
Remembering everything
You said to me

Everything

And if you keep their scent away
From our bed and I do too
Then I’ll just love you and you alone

In the Sahara
Grows a Tulip
From the day
We met

In the Antarctic
A Black Rose
Fights against the ice
The day we pronounced
Our love for each other

Light has reached
A Black Hole
In the deepest of space
&
Will survive it
Penetrating it
Mercilessly

Where nothing can grow
Where nothing living can survive
You will find us there
Our love
Our beating hearts
Together
Entwined
Eric the Red Feb 2018
And if I had one day
That would be okay
With you
I
Would just ask
For the sun to never set
Nor the moon to never rise
&
Just get lost in eternal seconds
Press against your immortal skin
&
Get back all the time
Lost between us

Loved
How she slept
How she laughs
How she looks at herself
Her words that she writes
How she dances by herself
Sometimes
With music
Sometimes
With tears
So I’ll stand guard
Unrelieved watch
Over her
Until she joins me
Hear her whisper
Each and everynight
Before turning off the light
‘I miss you my love...I know you are there. I feel you.’
‘I miss you too...
I’m the Ghost
And she haunts me...

FWB
I swear everybody wants to call
Somebody
Their Valentine today
At least for 20-30 minutes

‘Hey...just seeing how you’re doing. Happy Valentine’s Day. Remember me? Got any big plans tonight?’

A woman should know when a man cries for her...and her alone
