Just when
I thought it was over
You decided to say hello
Just when
My scars had healed
You surfaced once again
Just when
Your face had faded
It showed itself once more
But I know
It was you and me
Never us, and never will be
When you are far
When you are near
Where ever you may be
You will always be
Only moments away
From these arms
Maybe today is the day
My heart cries out for you
Maybe today is the day
You hear my crying heart
Maybe tonight is the night
Our love takes us through the dark
Holding on to each other
Embracing our passion
Breathing our dreams
Forgetting the world
Only you
Only me
Only us
Maybe?
Knock knock!!
Who’s there?
No one
No one who?
Ha ha, joke’s on you!
Sometimes
Days were so dark that
Even the glow of a candle
Could not shed a flicker of light
But eventually
The darkness passed
And a summer sunflower
Could warm my shoulder again
So this is what I find strategically placed next to my bed. First thing I see every morning when I open my eyes. Remnants of our luxury dream holiday in April – dark chocolate and raspberry squares, courtesy Ghirardelli of San Francisco. (Because who doesn’t want to wake up to the sight of chocolate?) Well, I am no longer eating any, except for these ten squares being carefully rationed. Raspberry covered in dark chocolate. Hmmm, yummo. My luxury!
(I have five left, and being a meany and not sharing 😀)
If I could paint angels
I would paint angels surrounding me
I would paint all the souls I miss every day
Into life and have them here to stay
I would paint them from my heart
So they could be outside me
And I would never throw
The paintings
Away
A lone butterfly
Sharing splashes of color
Against pure, clean white
Our Butterfly is
Ready to fly, spread your wings
We kiss you goodbye!
Place our butterfly where we would like butterfly to be
Clean the slate for our butterfly
As our butterfly appeared to be
