Jennifer Of Empty Rooms

Jennifer Of Empty Rooms

A Poem by Timmypoet

Jennifer you lighten up my days....Jennifer you are a star in so may ways....I love the way you are...I love the way you look...you keep me captivated like a high brow book

Where have you been my princess...who have you had in between?...If I could sing a song I would...for you are everything that’s good...about this life

Jennifer the flowers have come out today....just for you.....for you look their way

You can brighten up a room when you walk in....come and take my hand and let’s begin...to live our lives together...we will live like this forever...fleeting glances...golden chances and Saturdays in bed...making love...wet kisses and very little said

Jennifer you have stolen my show....kicked off all the actors...demolished all the set...but only I can know....what it is that you do to me...every time I see your pretty face it sets me free

I am waking in the mornings and it takes time for me to realize that you are in my life and you are engulfing me....its not something for which I wish to break free...you are moving me

Jennifer’s a sunny day...a funny play...all the stars in the night sky.....all the reasons that I asked why...just smelling your scent can make me cry

Come and take me...in your clutch....come and tell me...you want me so much....I know you do...you say it without saying...you play it without playing

Reaching for the Romeo within me...like searching for the scarlet one the long lost key

Jennifer the world...Jennifer sky...Jennifer be mine don’t ask me why....

Breathing your air purifies my soul....being in your presence makes me feel whole

You are the first girl to capture my attention....all the others are not worth a mention...all my spent love a pretention

In the past it was about the sex and the lies....but when I look into those glazed brown eyes...I am sold...writing a love letter for me that is bold....it takes away my years doesn’t make me feel so old....

My limited Vocab brings me to this...a stolen moment and long passionate kiss....

I will take your tears and build a Lake........in the middle create an island where future plans we’ll make

Make them all a reality....a million miles away from what is called normality

Jennifer you are the reason I put one foot in front of the other....best friend in the whole world and perfect Lover

So Jennifer tell me this. Why did you take you from me...what did I miss?...

How could I not see...how could I not hear?...your inner calling..your nightmare your fear

I will never forget that day in 98 when I took the call and heard the news....the blood dropped from my head and flooded my shoes

Suddenly I was in empty rooms........you took the car to beauty spot..attached a hose and filled it with fumes

My entire future wiped out as you died in solitude....it has stopped me from loving again....offers I’ve had a multitude

It must have been such a lonely desolate drive.....knowing you were going to die....no kiss of life to keep you alive

I will be forever haunted by you.....you are in my every part of London and Paris and in whatever I do

Jennifer I never wrote you a love letter....thought life with me would make things better

I am writing it now babe. Just to let you know that I am here. Still loving you and missing you...not easier with each and every year

The crushing of my reality.....a life left void of love and vanity

Let the wind blow let the dust settle...I have visited that spot now over grown in nettle

Stinging my flesh to wake me up from my permanent sleep......I will never wish for love again...well not one so deep

I took your ashes home to your home town in France.....as they blew in the wind they started to dance

For a second or two I breathed you again.....and for that second it relieved some of the pain

Finding your beloved father hanging in that shed.....lost his entire fortune...was better off dead

You lived with that I know....as much as you tried to hide it....it did show.

Time to say goodbye....I am about to take a train journey....I promise not to cry

Just going to revisit the birthplace of my love.........to worship the ground you did walk

F**k him............... up above

I like this a lot. I like its music and flow. I like the style and the way it is written and although the last line contains one of my favorite words ... it does not quite fit into this extraordinary poem.
