UNTAMED HEART

My untamed heart,...

I cannot help feeling the way that I feel
or doing the things that I do;
acting the way I'm not supposed to.
For I have not the discipline to do so.

Your presence is powerful, and intense..
it overwhelms me completely
and takes control of me.
For that moment, it's an...

Wild
pristine
and untamed,
Mother Nature's
untethered to time
or the presence of man.
She's a part of everything
half creator, half destroyer
She is the architect of all life;
both its beauty and abominations.
Connected in a fundamental way
we appreciate Nature's beauty;
like inking the sunset scarlet,
and tinting the sky crimson,
or apple-blossom pink.
But, She also...

shoreless bounding main
          veiled magic in such splendor
               laughing at its yoke

My untamed heart, 
ruled by unruly wants
Sometimes in tatters, 
but flatters and taunts

I played at life...
but life played me harder,
Lived bet to debt...
in life's Russian roulette

Chorus
I'm like a ghost ship, 
stranded on breakers
searching for life, without any light
I rummage through...
my Psyches ruins
Dreams duel disasters, 
but...

 Neon skies reflected in God’s palette;
the Divine Artist’s canvas speaks
and I am enamored of its stories.
Jewels of nature painted in colors
of sapphire blue,
emerald green,
ruby red,
carnelian orange,
citrine yellow,
amethyst purples
and lavender-pink stripes,
with periwinkle dots upon the waves
and variegated backdrop of sky.
Onyx and lemon cumuli peek through...

Poison flicks out,
among saccharine promises.

His sugarcoated tongue is tarnish proof.

He holds his tongue.
Where shall he place it?
Idle.
Let it rest.

Give permission to taste encouraging syrupy words.

"Love" is apple pie.
"Wonderful" drips of dark chocolate.
"Sorry "soaks of rich coffee savor.

Do not spew out:
"I hate you!"

Tame speech with righteousness.

Quiet...

Movie: Untamed Heart

"AN UNTAMED HEART HAPPENED TO BE 
MY BELOVED'S WEAKNESS"


A first date is so full of lingering whispers and sweet romances,
AN UNTAMED HEART can beat faster given many wonderful chances-
He held my hand gently as we shared silly nervous glances,
to think it all started...

I met George one spring day as he cruised by, so sexy
  he was a dreamy dream on a big motorcycle
and I was so young and at a lovely fanciful age, a butterfly
  we spent our days riding the country roads

our nights under...

The child allowed to have their way,
And do whatsoever they may,
Who is not taught to have restraint,
Develops traits that their life taint.

The rule of appetite destroys,
And undermines life’s lasting joys.
It makes the human being a slave,
To whatever his passions crave.

Instead of reason taming urge,
Unruly urges...

Sit back and wait like a lady?
A lady I remain while untamed
I tell you I like you
Without shame I pursue you
Something I will not wait on line to do
Flattering you, appreciating your beautiful
From the outside to within then back again
Your beauty a loop I want...

Unstoppable beauty,
Ultra wild wildflowers,
Under plum windswept skies!
Uplifting gay colors.
Unspoilt rampant meadow,
Unwilling to be bound.
Unusual colors.

Nature's, raw fury can no man withstand,
nor deeds of malcontent brothers understand
Natural calamities from: wind, water, divine command;
Man-made disasters by: leader, follower, brigand
Nature's untamed, mystical hand;
Man's marauding, sentient brand
Unseen forces generating chaos in each, hurricane
band ;
Contrasted with marksman's contrived, murderous stand
Without warning, listless gales shiver...
