waiting black rose

Post by saw » July 8th, 2015, 9:33 pm

if there is any at all
my brilliance is in my love for you
all of you

in my ability to feel
your pain, your happiness....
in my determination

to know you,
to know all y'all
what a simple goal

how lucky is this ?
I don't want more....
the secret to nirvana

is merely to rein in my ego ?
I never would have thought of that
o m g

that's all there is ?
learning how to breathe
without pain

loving as hard as you can
for as long as you can
damn ! ....why have I waited so long ?

why have I resisted the inevitable
why have I wasted all this time
consuming possessions

that always left me empty
as a downed six pack of miller lite
this bud is not for you !

this bud
is a waiting black rose
that opens into a kaleidoscope

If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

The curse of we who bear the souls that feel to deeply. I absolutely love this one it's inspired me. Thank you! And I miss you!
And above me the stars align
But not yet with my own
And the night birds sing
Whilst the demon haunts this restless soul.

Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.
