The same old song.......

The same old song.......

A Poem by Dave W.
"

And so we return to that which was left behind, and truely I am a fool found wanting.....

"
How could I tell you 
what your words 
do to my spirit. 

Or the effect 
your mind has 
on my heart. 

Do you need the 
complication 
of a friend in love? 

NO! 

You need the peace 
of a friend who listens 
of a friend who's there 

You need the 
kind of love 
that sacrifices self. 

Time with you 
should be the fountain 
that satisfies 
and quenches any 
longing for more. 

Why cant I just be 
content with what I have? 

Why must the storm rage? 

Why is the world gray when you're gone? 

Why do I look for your return? 

Why am I on this path again? 

My God I hate the heart 
and everything it brings 
would that I could kill it 
never feeling again. 

let me become a eunuch 
to these passions 
I would rather not feel today...... 

Then you call  
I snap out of it, 
enchanted by the angelic song 
of your beautiful timbre

As Sisyphus 
I return to my beloved 
boulder of confused love 
and deafening silence.....
