Ifnotforyou
I write of these things to dream or wish upon,…of only my belief
the ink dries the tears of yesterdays, simple joy or grief
‘tis of beast or beauty, love or distain
of many fulfilled, or broken days, to cleanse my soul like rain
Please wipe away that ego I’ll give away the thought
just read with open mind, believe, as fantasy always taught
not everything is of our past, of love, nor truth to word
just my feelings and things never spoken, that you may never heard
oh God I do, I think of you, that my heart will never rest
please let me love you as I do, is all that I request….
Close your eyes put down the book and sip your cup of tea
They are only words in dried cracked ink and what they mean to me…
