Why Am I Sad
• 04/01/24 at 11:11AM •Why am I sad?
I sit here, I do,
Where have you gone?
What did I do?
Why am I sad?
I sit here, I do,
Where have you gone?
What did I do?
I feel like,
I'm in a trance.
My body wants you,
I want to dance.
Dance with you, slowly,
the old style dance,
and keep you close,
as I'll have a chance,
to love you tomorrow,
and the following day,
for I won't let you go,
I need you to stay.
Love me today.
Love me tomorrow.
Love through good times,
Love me when in sorrow.
From a time when I wrote, as if I was a Poet.
You are like no other woman
I have ever known.
You turn darkness into light,
with your smile.
You chase the doubt from my mind,
with your words.
You dry the tears from my eyes,
with your kiss.
You turn sadness into joy,
with your presence.
The touch of your hand,
makes it real.
For I will never know,
another you.
A tale of discovery
While travelling on distant paths,
I met a man like me,
who was searching for a
brand new world
and trying to be free.
This man was old and couldn't see,
what laid beyond the bend
and he asked me, very graciously,
if I would be his friend.
As we wandered down the path
of life's rough and rocky shore,
I didn't like his manner
and found him quite the bore,
at least he was to me.
He loves or hates most people
but mostly he doesn't trust
because he's insecure.
He criticizes quite freely
and never lets you be.
I knew I didn't like him
when I found out he was me.
The heart is a
remarkable thing,
for during our life's
journey, it will bring.
How many times,
can a heart break,
while still repairing itself,
what an effort it will take.
Yet here we are,
on this barren ground,
looking for love,
wherever it may be found.
I desire to return,
to a normal life.
One I haven't seen,
in 10 years of strife.
Careless the heart,
quick to share love,
to an unplanned response's
message from above.
I can still keep
looking for love
and companionship,
with guidance from above.
We all need love.
From the day we were born,
when love finds you,
come blow your horn.
A parallel of time.
Another day and year.
I will search for you,
over the ocean, over here.
Life has changed,
less smiles, more tears,
as I discover why,
my life is in arrears.
I remember,
the sweetness,
of your lips.
Our first kiss.
You were everything
to me, my courage,
my strength and
my personal sage.
Let me love you till
there's no tomorrow.
We'll live for the moment,
forever, without sorrow.
Yesterdays are gone,
I am alone,
waiting for you,
to come along,
to rescue my soul,
with me so long,
in this life, mine,
and its sad song.
