Belated Love

Posted on | November 19, 2008 |

On a whim and a fairy tale
you still seek love, waiting for the
one that burns your soul and her simple
touch electrifies your skin.

For love once took your heart to the crematory
leaving you with an astigmatic idea
that there is no one for you, a destiny
is on a road of solitary with the prissy sun to your back.

The propinquity of the she whom you long for
somewhere in this world, in some bizarre monopolistic miscellany
when the time is right and the heart is healed and the past forgotten and
sealed in the doldrums you will find her and she will find you
on a whim and a fairy tale.

 

Today’s random words and phrases: whim, astigmatic idea, monopolistic miscellany, crematory, prissy sun, propinquity
