SHE
If there was power within my pen,
I would infuse my pages with phrases intent
on winning her over again
with words I imbued with yearnings I used
to feel as a much younger man –
when I first discovered I loved her,
only to lose her. Hear my lament!
Love Goddess, won’t you relent?
And let my love find her like hounds on a scent
to remind her of what she once meant
in my world and still does?
To my heart, she is blood!
In my art, she’s the beauty;
that part of a movie
that brings everyone near to tears…
She’s the kiss of cool wind
on warm nights ‘cross my skin.
She’s my favorite song
hummed in my ear. She belongs
in my life ‘til the moment
it ends…
