Born from revelry thus fair and smooth My eyes rested on him A ‘true gentleman’ writ large on his face My gaze longingly upon his spirit With the nicest smile, and a laughter of distinction and grace
I ponder…my dreams of him night and day My muse in love with him, every which way With welling tide of emotions without end While white frothy waves cover my mind As I walk through the garden of his life… Under each leaf, looking for him, hoping to find
If only I could turn back the hands of time The day I was seizing the world A wonderland that so dear I hold Close and cherished by my heart I would give up my now For that precious second start…
That enigmatic moment that I laid My eyes upon you I knew my darkness may someday shine The revelry had perchance thrown up A pearl wrapped up in immortalized time
Etched and elusive seconds Turned to minutes hours and years… Today…
Your dreams are a symphony’s crescendo I, the elusive maestro, you the virtuoso The era that you worship, is a bygone eternity Tidal oceans, the lost sea of tranquility The spirit you seek, is missed love’s divinity
If you could turn back the time, would your eyes be at peace, the muse still love him Your thoughts that often porpoise through... the gardens that are your loved wonderland Would your heart stretch out to hold today’s wrinkled hand?
