#dalliance
.
Nights don’t change…
Perhaps just the stories
they weave in infinites
from the fires of stars
and embers of hearts…
Or perhaps it’s the way
they were captured
and deciphered;
Reworded and retuned
to the song and dalliance
of the hand-wielded ink.

I sped the highway and hungered for adventure
With a broken down car
I once called a floating river
Periodic clouds on the outskirts hustled and bustled

*Oh a kiss
What a bliss
It is something
I ought to miss
Such a mess
I ought to be
Into an abyss
I fall with thee*

You put my head up
Among the stars
And help me hear
The cosmos sing.
To me it was epiphany
But it didn’t mean a thing
To you, at least not enough
To realize I was enchanted
Like a school kid of twelve
With that first strong crush
That turns the heart to mush
And the knees to jelly.
It puts a fire in the belly
That time can’t quench.
I felt my gut wrench
And clench and flatten out
So much I felt a shout
Coming on like a scream
But felt that would seem
To make me look insane.
I am doing it all again,
That childhood love attack
Was dragging me back
And away from today
When my heart wanted to say
Words that meant something,
But to you nothing.
My head is still in the stars
Which must be where you are
Because you are not here.
Nowhere near any more
I was just a love chore
And, your work done
You are gone.

Lipstick so red on lips so blue,
Shadows so black on eyes untrue.
Puff of smoke huffed to the air,
Swirling amorously around the lady fair.
Lust is dancing with natural ease,
Hips sway to and fro - what a tease!
Hands beckoning at night's affair,
Fingers snap with passionate flare.
Words whispered with carelessness,
Hearts shielded from tomorrow's mess.
For tonight lovers cling for security,
Such solace found in darkness' infidelity.

Oh sweet tree,
Cover me with your shadow,
Grab me, protect me.
Oh sweet tree,
I love your branches.
I love when the apples bloom,
May I grab one of those apples?
Oh sweet tree,
The apples were delicious,
But oh sweet tree, they have poisoned me.
Oh sweet tree, I was infatuated
I thought this would work.
Oh sweet tree,
I'm about to die, this was ephemeral.
Oh sweet tree, I'll love you eternally
Even though you killed me.

when I think of you I think if we could be
beautiful,
brilliant,
blissful,
and far too brief
and I am scared of ending
perhaps that is why I don't want to begin
