For Now

In a melancholic haze
slow moving
breath is laboured
through this time
heavy days
that are numbered
till by this thick air between us
I am unencumbered
till I can love you
my passion
present you my zenith
before you I will bloom
with the power of Venus

This is a wonderful piece Maureen. The wants of the heart play tricks on the mind. Or is it the other way around? Maybe one day someone will have an answer I can believe. For now I'm satisfied reading your words.

Oh the tricks, so well stated James; this s an older poem and so much of the emotional chaos of that time can be summed up in your question. Theses words what I've got to show for it. :) Thank you James, I really appreciate your words xomo!
