Looking for something to brighten my day
Want to run off and play
Preferably free but willing to pay
Something to take me away
Want to feel happy and gay
Maybe have some tea at the local café
Attend an event that is underway
Some candy and a flower bouquet
Eat my full at a delicious buffet
Somewhere quiet I can lay
Go for a ride on a sleigh
Dance with the cabaret
Maybe enjoy a souffle
With a juicy filet
Play some croquet
Shout out hooray
Laugh like a clown
Enjoy every sound
Joy to be found
Playing in the crowd
Shouting out loud
Happy and proud
Standing my ground
Doing things unallowed
Back to work I will go
My day moving slow
Feeling a need to grow
Thinking of good times from long ago

A camouflaged hunters log-
Brought along his faithful dog
Duck, goose, pheasants do hunting
And fish rendition daunting
Cleared blue those skies unallowed
In out round hiding midst clouds
Squawks honking ever so loud
Fearless duck leads them in-crowd

Surrounded and distracted to a fault
the mayhem of your love strenuates me
I abrogate my feelings towards you not
to wound you only wherefore I may breathe.
Petulant indignation on your brow
is lovelier than that tiresome doting kiss
And now I venture towards things unallowed;
previous to this day I, you would miss,
so dreadfully it seemed a very sin
that I should with my friends enjoy a night.
You doubtless lay awake and cry within-
this image from my mind I cannot fight
I drink until I blackout at your door
requiring the verve of your love's ardor.

The one who's forbidden,
The apple unbitten.
You fight with temptation
For a love unallowed.
I promise to let you
Do things how you need to,
For love isn't hurried,
Self-indulgent or proud.
Though constricted by chains
They will rust in the rain,
Because time is a healer
And our wounds won't last.
I promise to love you.
I will be the one who
Will hold your hand as we
Set fire to the past.
