Time with you…

sunset-3349434_960_720

There never seems to be enough time with you

The days are long and the nights are too

And if I could have my way

I’d steal all the lost minutes in the day

And spend them all with you

Testimony of a peeping alien named Tom

It appeared to be liquid love
Consisting of a mercurial matter
Which then showered across her chest
This curious essence completely splattered

She was then drenched in translucent passion
From his apparent spasmodic contraction
And this all seemed to be the consequence
Of some unknown gravitational reaction

He hides his goodbyes in her hellos

couple

He hides his goodbyes
In her hellos
Never revealing
What she already knows

And as the days continue
And the months turn to years
She blossoms for him
Increasing his fears

For he knows the cost
Of true love upon a soul
And if he loses her now
He’ll never feel whole

So he hides his feelings
As best he can
Hopeful that someday
She’ll understand

Paper heart

paperheart

Where to start
With a paper heart

Uniquely delicate
And gossamer thin

With a pale almost
Colorless skin

Can there be
A more fragile design?

This is why paper hearts
Get left behind

Writing prompt: paper heart

An undeniable gift

He has knowledge and wisdom
Beyond logical compare
He understands the very things
In which others aren’t unaware

And yet he can’t always see it
Or understand the how’s and why’s
Which frustrates him immensely
All because of a gift he can’t deny
