Something has changed with me... something I must explore...
So I shall explore via 3am poetry. Enjoy/Disapprove at your own risk :)
Here was I!
The terrible television toddler-
With the droll drool expression
Slipping slender on my face.
I knew the gameshows and the gladiators,
The singing idols and the suitcase deals.
I'd memorized the soap opera lives I led offscreen
And kissed absent-mindedly into the moonlight hours...
And as always, when the dancing clowns would fade,
So would my hopeless heart reveal its hardened sorrow,
Clamoring for old lips and tired tomorrow...
But you...
With soft, kinetic eyes,
Have baffled me!
I know not the procedure
To your odd experiment!
You wooed me with your quick words
And I warily placed my bet...
But with gentle explanations
You boasted and broke through
My glass stereotypes!
With your stress stones and trauma humor
You left me limp and stunned.
How could I not surrender?
You won me!
Instruct me then,
(For I long to be instructed!)
In the ways of this connection.
I have no degree of knowing
How to apply your application
To my sometimes life...
So, my moonstruck dearest, stick to me!
For maybe, if you hold fast,
Your heart would seem to be
The first anchor to shore this ship
In many a tyrant sea...
:)
