Notes About The Poem

Gotta love someone with convictions eh?

Maria Has Gone

Maria has Gone

She has gone
She has left
Maria is no more
She has no use for players
She has no use for Juan or his slayers

Adam is caught
In the sheets of his deception
Eva Maria has left, looking for the alma Santa Maria
Sands erase the love, Maria is all but gone
She searches the beaches
For meringue and peaches

Maria has gone
Maria has left
Maria knows them all
The usual suspects

Maria your color is beautiful
The way it sways
Maria your tango plays with me
For I must be truthful

Maria has gone
Maria has left
Maria knows them all
The usual suspects

We dance cheek to cheek
Tossed the cheaters to the sea
The usual suspects drowned
We bailar for the love to be

Ok ok ok
The players are here to stay
Maria though she will not be swayed
She has left, she can not be played

She has left
You will see
Look at the sea shore
She ran free, she is with me

How beautiful are her curves
Beautiful and bonito she swerved
I wanna touch her in the dark
I wanna kiss her right on the heart

Maria has gone
Maria has left
Maria knows them all
The usual suspects

They shed tears she has gone
They dance in silent seductions
The usual ones, one and the same
Players playing all the same game

Maria has gone
Maria has left
Maria knows them all
The usual suspects

Now Maria has nerves
That are as smooth as her curves
She knows when the dance is right
The usual suspects will not be in site

Maria has gone
Maria has left
Maria knows them all
The usual suspects

Besos under the moon
She had me swoon
Maria has left
No need to look anymore

She dances at my front door

First read, this was great, and I know there is more under surfaced scratched, a multifocused write that leaves me swimming in it a few times over. Hugs x

This Maria must be one smart cookie who is not fooled nor played by Don Juans sugar-coated tongues...and it seems king Arthur is the lucky one here. Love this line -'I wanna kiss her right on the heart'..I'm picturing it.
