I was the Hurricane that fondly blew on him
-the way you do your favourite old records

But he was a dandelion and
he was gone

some things are best enjoyed only at that moment. Don't blink, don't ask for a pinch because, by the time you believe it, Its already moved on.

looking back I realise I was a rather ambitious mistress.

How absurd that I should think you'd leave her for me. She's been with you longer than you care to remember.

In fact, you married her to become "A Man".
That Bitc- your loyal wife was technically there during our encounters too.

I risked everything to show you what life could be without her,
what we could have.
But.
I know you hold her closer than you do your dreams.

That ****** wife of yours.

Her name is Insecurity.
Sometimes we love people who have already committed to their insecurities. It's sad, but all too common

If you wanted the sun
I would bring it to you
with burnt hands

Then
the
rain
stopped
The
sun beat down
The
ripples on the lake watched
As
a
Prince
gently hugged
a
Lily

I hope shooting stars fall on all your empty acres.
The places where the seeds I planted never grew.

Places that won't even grow poppies.
Yes, I'm praying the Sars fall on no man's land.
More commonly known as your heart.
May stars fall next to Flanders Feilds
