Like you..
MichaelJfourie May 2020
I heard your heart pounding at the sound of his voice

Your Knees were shaking it was not your choice

Your hands were sweaty

I'll dry them if you let me

I'll be happy if it works for both of you

And

If you fall do not worry I'll be waiting for your call

Even if it takes a while

I will let your heart smile

At the end the worst part of you

Is telling me I hope to find a guy like you...
I have always been an old fashioned man.Wanting to keep the lessons of old alive.Opening the car door,letting her walk first,remove my jacket and being a hopeless romantic...Dancing under the moonlight,picnic with a self made drive in cinema.... Yet... I always hear the words "I hope to find a guy like you."Like an endless record player in my head. Am I not good enough?Am I not here right now?

Rainy day
MichaelJfourie May 2020
I love a rainy day
It reminds me of all the words I wanted to say

Maybe it was a last goodbye
Maybe I was to shy
Maybe I didn't want to lie

As every drop falls from above
I long for the true feeling of love

Now as I ready to go to bed
I'll let the rain wash away everything that wasn't said
This one really comes from the heart.

Beauty of the eyes
MichaelJfourie May 2020
If I should die I would smile if your eyes are my last goodbye.
Like the beauty of a sunset .
Like the story where the sun and the Moon met.
Like a never ending eclipse.
Like a kiss on the lips.
Beauty of the eyes
Fall in-love,make memories,share stories and always look at each other like there is nothing more beautiful on earth.

Little Bird
MichaelJfourie May 2020
Hello Little Bird
I wonder if you heard

We are locked indoors
I can only watch you soar

Would you listen to my song
Where did we go wrong

Please dont go away
I want you to stay

How selfish of me
I forgot you are free
And
We are Caged

Moonlight
MichaelJfourie May 2020
Dancing in the moonlights shadows
A beaming light, O so narrow

Following the glimpse of light
Hearing laughter of the utmost delight

A glance through the little door
Two  youngins lying on the floor

Chatting about the brightest things
On I go as midnight rings

Now excited about what tomorrow brings

Time to step out of my dark room
Now I dance in the light of the moon
Feeling strong for a bright future.

The Candle
MichaelJfourie Feb 2020
We are like a candle in the wind
Blowing in every direction
Flickering and lighting the way
Until one day our flame goes out

Life Goes On
MichaelJfourie Feb 2020
On a winters's day
We parted ways

Neither begging for the other to stay
I watched her go
And
So fell the first snow

Then came spring
The season where nature sings

Like the seasons
Everything has a reason

Life goes on...
I miss her,but I smile for she is happy.
Time has eased my pain.

You
MichaelJfourie Nov 2019
You
Your Eyes Danced As The Moon Lit The Sky
As You Watched The Last Birds Fly
As The Last Ray of Sun Had it's Fun

                ... You were beautiful...

                                                   ­

I always wonder, let my mind go and feel with my heart when I see a dreamer, still believing in this worlds of ours.

The Moon my Friend
MichaelJfourie Jan 2019
The silent echo of the night
Just one flickering light

Whisper of two friends getting along
In the Silence just hear their cheerful song

Like the flow of the ocean
They were full of emotion

In the Silent Room
I still found him talking to the Moon

                                                           ­     ...Michael J Fourie
Sometimes when the world puts you down,you just need to take a breath and talk to the Bigman.The light of hope will always flicker whether it is in a light,lamp or the moon.You will find light in your darkness.

— The End —
