Without her my life would be as dark as night

Hidden beneath the hopes and dreams, gentle
Feelings, inspiring me to trust, believe
Fondness this alive isn’t accidental
It feels amazing, just like Christmas Eve,
Joyful and inspired, like a heart afire

(oh, mercy ... )

amazing eye whites,
perfect and pure as glacial ice -
they draw me in,

as you enter this arena of aroma
as I nose out the world's perfumes

Oh my beloved, joy to me you bring, 
your love-light is shining deep in my dark. 
You are the beauty that makes my heart sing,

Cooped within ancient bodies, this inhabitant 
dwells amongst an elder net 
of crabby, crotchety, curmudgeonly claque 
of old folks, only a portion of population I met
which achey, flaky, kooky motley crue

With my wrists out and prescription lids littered around. 
I've scribbled out a bitter letter in wicked accounts and written down twisted sentences...

Drifting south for a change of pace,
