Lovers

[Angharad]

Past, present, or future...real or fantasy...love 'em or leave 'em. In 5/7/5.

[Drew Francis]

my distant lover

staring at the setting sun

turns east toward me

[Angharad]

Oh, Drew. I see her.

[Drew Francis]

thanks...

 

door creak smile arrives

and now i am gone again...

memories clinging 

 

mojitos and bread

pressing hands wet and laughing

black umbrella

[Angharad]

Perfect  snapshot.

[Angharad]

we fall into bed

perfect in imperfection...

1,000 blossoms

[Angharad]

all the days gone by

all the days that lie ahead

this moment, and this

 

these I give to you

all the roads i've ever walked

all i ever will

[Angharad]

i lie in your arms

wrapped in your amazing love

filled with your essence

 

your eyes pierce through me

fracturing the isinglass

exposing my soul

 

you kiss my belly

"i'm here, inside you, right now"

i smooth your dark curls

 

"yes, i feel it too"

warm tears pool in my navel

“it’s a miracle”

 

your aging eyes shine

“have we the right to such joy?”

fear crosses your face

 

against all the odds

our great love has taken root…

“let the gods decide”

[Daddieo]

Simply put...wow.

I drift away with the memories you provoke...thank you.  I think I have to go call my children.

[Angharad]

Thank you so much, Daddieo.  Yes...children, our treasure...bless all of them.

[Daddieo]

I asked her to come

a walk in the woods we two

who's seducing who

[d's girl]

I'm wearing his shirt

Beneath his suit yesterday 

Better this morning

[Angharad]

looking for true love

he walked the razors' dark edge

balancing deftly

 

crossing boundaries

he risked everything he had...

and still he pushed on

 

black seas and white snows

dark labyrinths, stark deserts

relentless, his dream

 

as hope was waning

he caught the scent of roses

and knew she was near

 

repressed desire welled

his pain flowed like a river

joy swept him onward

 

at last he found her

smiling and weeping… “my love,

I knew you would come!”

 

her arms were open

he reached out to embrace her

the rose and its thorns

 

her love pierced his heart

growing tendrils entwined them

sorrow was vanquished

 

as they sang of love

undying, and journeys’ end

all the world listened

 

peace reigned in their hearts

what was broken was mended

their souls became one

 

the darkness waited

for their love to fade and die

but it never did…
