My Chocolate Knight
My Chocolate Knight on a black stallion…
Riding into my desolate
Darken heart
Decay
Galloping toward my disillusions, heartaches…
Radiating a hope of
Brighter
Days
~~
I wait
Breathlessly
Hearing the pounding of his presence...
Desiring
The reality of his nearness
Sensing the soothing comfort of his essence
~~
Is it
The sound of happiness...
Echoing in this powerful pulsating beat
Is it
The expectation of love...
Beaconing me as still I await in silent retreat
~~
My Chocolate Knight on a black stallion...
Dinged and dented armor
Shining through
The darkness
Of a heart's
Despair
Illuminating the throbbing emptiness
As impatiently I wait
Finally exhaling
The stench of
Love-depleted
Air
~~
Is it an
Earthshaking...Comic blast
Life reshaping...explosive spill
Or just
A summoning rhythmic repeating
A calmness getting closer and closer still
~~
My Chocolate Knight on a black stallion
My happiness, my prince
~~My chance
Rescuing my imprisoned heart
As I await no longer
For romance
~~~
Thundering through disappointments storms
Illuminated-lightening revealed flashes
Of a future
"US"
Torrential rains washing away the grime
Healing...Cleansing disillusions'
Embittering
Crust
~~~
"Mount up with me my princess
Let's ride into our forever-more
I shall be your heart's defender
For it is you my heart long for"
~~~
Falling...
Holding tenaciously
And securely being held
Totally, absolutely complete
Two
Gallantly armored
Galloping in contentment
By two hearts' combined beat
