Trust No One

~My Heart~

•      One last night before the grave
•	Thousands of thoughts of you I save
•	-Every night, I experience the same dream
•	That you haunt me, exposing my sensual needs
•	You push me,
•       Into a pit of everything that terrifies me  
~LOVE~ I confess, I fear, I avoid!!!

In the back of my mind, the moon can’t be as large 
My heart bleeds, to feel more than two worlds apart
Tonight I will embed, your fantasy, my fantasy, 
The Astros; I project --into your arms, of security
Your eyes render 
A heavenly sanctuary, a slight sick smile to my face
You stay, I stay, in a dream we touch lips
I venture my heart then I stray, Am I afraid?
Feasibly, I’m not open-minded  
I hide under this mask, these covers, that make me hold back
•	I echo the moods of past dreams
•	I proved to sustain a closed book, yet open your way
A trusted aspirin, can’t make thoughts of you go away
Dramatize persona, the erroneous kind of light
Yet it continues to run like hot lava, melting my mind
I’m ever so soft, when lost with your words,
I’m weak, I feel each time I cross my fingers
I’m loss of words I babble, my heart sings
Then pretends, nothing is going on
Then, I hallucinate of that kiss, and then slowly it fades
Tomorrow's another day, every mood will get in the way

•	Today, I will strain
•       And make sense of what clogged my main artery
•	In a holding cellar, like wine it will be worth the wait
You plead for me, you pinched my eyes
I fall back to reality

Avowal, Instructions, Discipline, and Lock Down 
That explains it all!!!

Dear Linda I must agree with Steve on this one you fear love because your not in control, but it takes alot of courage to put your whole heart and soul into a relationship these days and when the right one comes along you'll know because it will feel right, than the fear will melt away take it from me, sis great poem, cheri

You fear love because you are not in control. Love is the master and you are the slave. Take control of love and the roles will be reversed. Steve

Tincture is the color of light. Love is any color in the spectrum. Move towards the light. And love will find you when you least expect it. ~Kilmer

This is very deep pd..Its as if someone 's heart had been broken but is still holding on to moments when things were different and life was like a dreamy fairytale.Its hard when decisions need to be made ,and those decisions await our hearts to let go of what was once so precious to us.Very moving and sad deep.reality We all have to face every now and then..Yet what doesn t kill us makes us stronger.

PD This is a very heart tugging and emotional write. It is eerie in a sad kind of way. Thank you for the sweet comment on my Wild Night poem.

We are not perfection. So where there is love there is doubt; weakness in strength; dreams in reality; retreat in courage. But ultimately we are masters of our choices and emotions. Our heart lays down the rules...dare we go astray! // paul

I have said this before, your complexity unwound in your poetry, and with it, a wonderful inspiring sensation, one we all could learn from...
