I was moving
Seeing double
Two of her
Maybe three
Dogs crossing
Almost dying
Wine trying
To unhinge
Me
The loneliness
Corrodes me
Equivocates
And I see
Straight
Again
One of me
One of her
Face
To
Face
Both of us
In this
Seclusion
Alone
Misrepresentation
A lie
We both
Go home
Alone
And cry
The same
Cry
Six hundred
And thirty
Six
Times

Get Well Soon

Vases with lots of pretty flowers
Nod and sway and dance in the breeze
That blows from the open window
Notes and cards saying, "Get well soon!"
And I think to myself, "Easier said than done"
Balloons swaying and dancing on the walls and ceiling
And teddy bears and little tokens of lay all around
Story books of such lovely adventure lay on the nightstand
And one lays inside my hands, as I read on
Such a lovely place to go but one that only people can see
In their minds
But I am visiting there today along with the others
Who do not feel well
But I only wish it were just me who is there

*~Marian~
This is all made except for the fact that I do not feel well and so this place slipped into my head!!
Hope you enjoy!!

She sipped her coffee
as I
slowly
drank in her eyes...

inhaling deeply

upon her lips
in gently shared laughter...

with a touch she stirred us both

how I longed to be that cup
pressed softly
to her open mouth

to play light against her tongue
in fluid exchange...

of porcelain kisses

You're my talisman
Your words my panacea
Your eyes my daydreams

Today
I lovingly viewed
a perfect work
of modern
heart

It took every ounce of self control
not
to kiss you...

not to take you in my arms

inhaling deep
the very scent of floral meadows
from your hair

not to hold your hands
with fingers trembling

nor to speak the words openly...

that I have
so often penned
in secret pained poetic silence

but for one moment of weakness
I could have made known
my heart...

my feelings

but no

nor would I
risk all we are ... all we have

for one moment
of
madness.
Just a tired rambling mind trying to make sense of love maybe I need sleep lol
