Then I Can Die

If all I did was made you feel so real Among aortas of much needed love With silky shoulders of stern Pacific layers Disturbed by memories of wings... If I defected life and accepted wrinkles Of heated rhythm in tempera of love Although the shyness of a maiden wouldn't vanish I long to get to know you in your destined life... If all I did was made you stop and watch me Smiling from a frame of wooden Jacaranda wonders Then I can die forever in immortality of love - The Anonymous - in the "Wax Museum of the Hoping Souls"...

this poem spoke to me the words i long to hear. from women my age who did'nt give up on love. women who don't think that i think that they are attractive but they are and if they are single then i am active. beauty is in the eye of the beholder. let me judge if your much too older. let this new sexual revolution begin for the older and senior citizins.
