Seated, flipping through stories
Some cause a grin, but you're not pulled into any
A yawn, a stretch, and your eyes meet mine
The curving of your lips; butterflies inside me, so many

Sinful grin. Dark eyes.
A hungry soul, you know why
A beckon in pantomime, and I follow command
This moment. Such a high!

Magnetic gaze. Distances distanced.
Arms around close the bait
Pursed lips, not a word spoken
But love begins to communicate

Emotions rise, a tear falls
A thumb to the cheek, foreheads meet
A kiss on the temple, the warmest hug
A moment, forever. Could anything be this sweet?
In reality, we close the distance between us. But then, we wake up.

To me, your heart is special
So is your soul, far more precious
than the most expensive
diamond, there is
For it knows
Love

His heart's a bursting fountain of joy. His mind, a vortex of sorrow. I wish the former saved the latter.

Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Stand up, stay up, it may seem like a long night
Hold up, c'mon, don't let it out of your sight
Spring up, blow up, don't give up the fight

Dear mind, don't you teach me
Thoughts, to which, society has given birth
I know that you know
Better than that - your, our real worth
Listening to foreign voices, you've faced enough cold
C'mon now, decondition, show them all your gold
I see the sun rise...and it's shining bright, eh
Sweat it in the fight, come on
Springtime: Amongst the happiest time of the year...the time when LIFE starts to finally kick into every dark and dingy corner. If you are going through depression or even the slightest bit of sadness, I urge you to hold on to your strongest part - your mind. Don't forget, it can do wonders! Even if at this moment, it may seem easier said than done, can you please try, for your own sake?

Love & light! ❤

It is all pretense
That we are intelligent
Today is our day!
Happy All Fool's Day, fellow fools! :) <3

Two worlds collided
Two minds did tear us apart
I was left broken...
Inspiration: INXS's Never Tear Us Apart and a love like no other.

The shimmying shrubs
The gliding winds
The arm wave of the saline waters
The b-boying frogs
The popping, locking, ducking birds...à terre
Them, breaking into an allegro
The nature was a symphonic metaphor today
A dance lesson, that I did let lose and learn

Josephine, Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
I told you to leave my man alone

Josephine, Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
You did not listen, now you reap what you did sow

Your beauty was beyond compare
But now you're left with half your hair
And he seems to have lost interest in you, Josephine

I told you, "stay away from him!"
But your superficiality won him
Now, as it fades, the spell breaks, Josephine

I always knew my love was true
And without me, he would feel blue
He called several nights to say so, Josephine

Today he's back, regretting he left
But guess what happens, happens for the best
He wont leave love again for lust, Josephine

Josephine, Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
I thank you for trying to take my man

Josephine, Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
He's learnt his lesson - love him truly, only I can!
Inspired by what bex did with Dylan's Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, even though this is nothing in comparison. I wanted to try something nonetheless. So, when I was listening to Dolly Parton's Jolene, I thought "this is it. I'm going to poemify this song."
I'd love to see a better take though, and learn. :)

If you haven't already, the beautifully crafted Hey Mr. Tangerine Man, by bex, here-
