We shall fall and rise

Just words.

                          We shall fall and rise

---------------------------------------------------------

I listened to you,

you are so damn pretty and you carry a heavy heart.

I made you laugh and I told you.

Naked heart and too much drink,

weave us into a confused mess.

Pretty lady,

slow down, gather your life.

We shall fall and rise.

Life is a fine teacher,

break us, make us become who we suppose to be.

------------------------------------------------------------

I was adrift in her eyes and she knew.

We were cigarettes, hard drink and desperate nights.

We accepted token kisses and languished in woven dreams.

We crashed and burn in a Austin, Texas motel.

She told me often,

Dear poet, 

we are sometime lovers, sometime friends.

You are the steady ground I need when I can't face the night.

I whispered to her.

We are vagabonds seeking too little, too much.

We dressed-up love, we stripped to bare skin and

we never show real face.

We are just thieves and runners.

Somehow we became empty glasses needing to be filled-up.

She smiled and she whispered.

It is alright love, my honey.

We are Texas storms,

accepting what we are

one passionate poem... metaphorically can be compared to life itself because of the ups and downs.. this poem can be dual by nature something sexual but also realistic.. a good combination i should say
