I�m lost amongst the memories of my past



confused emotions that taunt me to the last



ripped asunder with pangs of distress



like lingering moments of a cold caress



embraces that seem to remind



trust gives the illusion that love is blind



wrapped in threads of mistrust



a heart of happiness that goes bust



songs of pleasure that tease the ear



words of deceit that brings you fear



life on a merry go round that twists and turns



eye's of salt that moistly burns



tears of laughter tears of joy



the expressions the same when yo cry



a dreams a story that's left to rot



like the morning mist that dawn's forgot



sunlight embellished upon the rose



then giving warmth petal grows



but like a flower that's dry to touch



missing the clouds that's cried so much



passing breeze that's blown away



twisted leaves that like to play



all my senses refuse to agree



it's like some cosmic mystery



the powers that make us unite



can rip us apart like day and night



nothing is eternal like we had planned



promises made on shifting sand



the only constant that we endure



is at the time we both were sure



then out the blue begins to change



that's when you know life is strange



words like hearts can be broken



whether loudly said or softly spoken



without a heart would be good



but dammit! I need it to pump my blood



a lover's pact accomplice of desire



fills your soul with an inexhaustible fire



turns your feelings into jelly



creates phantom butterflies in your belly



likened only to shared intent



disrupted emotions we try to vent



pictures slide across the screen



imprisoned images never seen



but hope undone shares a glance



we have to try take a chance



thoughts we conjure have to steal



we live our life by how we feel.

so much to be found in this written piece....
