(A lone voice whispers)

Do we

The broken lonely souls on Earth

Sometimes run
From a new rebirth

And finding a true love
We deserve

For in running

When in true flight

Do we find a strange soothing solace

In the sleepless drama of a self imposed karma

In that races dirt

Found in the middle of a dark endless
Night

When we no longer need to look
To get hurt

By opening a new leather bound book
Of possible trauma

Filled with emotional
middle age

Melodrama

Foundation of the piece.

Do the newly separated find a form of salvation in staying single?

Memories of The Beautiful lady Girl with the Golden Honda

 Memories of The Beautiful Girl with the Golden Honda

You were my only silent dancer 

My guiding shining light 

Whenever I felt 

Deep emotional pain

As I fought those early signs of cancer 

On ward ten

And although departed

By four years 

That deep love

Still remains 

And calls again 

Memories and emotions 

Of an incredible fire

That never expires

Entwined like green ivy 

In flight

In the middle of each now depressing night 

Of writing prose

For exquisite pleasure

On soft skin

That cannot be retold

Only for each other

To treasure 

In December archives 

As they grow old

For sometimes

The Lord gives you a gift 

In the form of a blessing

To forever 

Lift 

A friend

To the end

For only us 

To truly see

Whatever may 

Come 

And it's why I wrote this today

For to me

You'll always be

The only one

Who beat 

My souls drum

Loudly 

Whenever 

I felt numb
