Perhaps… You didn’t mean to mislead me When you softly, quietly pressed your sweet, moistened lips to mine Perhaps… When you left your lightly scented kissed of licorice and lavender Dancing on my heart in wispy, breathless winds Just perhaps… They were meant to tease and linger like chocolate in my strawberry dreams And perhaps… You didn’t mean to leave me in glistening, fragile tears Now scattered like sweet petals of nature’s flowers Blowing like diamonds in the elusive breeze ~ With my softened flesh and fragmented bones Falling like lifeless feathers amidst the Universe and stars Now… I am but a twinkle in my own deep, slumbering eye Traveling on gossamer arms of lords and angels On evanescent empyrean wings… In the skies of Heaven’s loving, welcoming embrace Perhaps now... You know how you broke my fragile heart

IN THE LIGHT OF MY FRAGILENESS
Perhaps… You didn’t mean to mislead me When you softly, quietly pressed your sweet, moistened lips to mine Perhaps… When you left your lightly scented kissed of licorice and lavender Dancing on my heart in wispy, breathless winds Just perhaps… They were meant to tease and linger like chocolate in my strawberry dreams And perhaps… You didn’t mean to leave me in glistening, fragile tears Now scattered like sweet petals of nature’s flowers Blowing like diamonds in the elusive breeze ~ With my softened flesh and fragmented bones Falling like lifeless feathers amidst the Universe and stars Now… I am but a twinkle in my own deep, slumbering eye Traveling on gossamer arms of lords and angels On evanescent empyrean wings… In the skies of Heaven’s loving, welcoming embrace Perhaps now... You know how you broke my fragile heart
