Under his spell

fallen-angel-3667116_1280

Under his spell
She fell
She drank

An affair of the heart
In ruin
She sank

Torpedoes dispersed
She tried
To veer

But in the end
The outcome
Was clear

There are no shortcuts
Only resolve
But it’s love
That will see us through

Rediscovering you…

10

When I read your words
All those wonderfully inspired words
A sense of longing and desire
Pulls me straight to you

As hard as I sometimes try
I can never deny your existence
Your words they come alive
Because you live in every one

The way love is…

rose-165819_1280

We can love with all we’ve got
And we can give our hearts away
But that doesn’t necessarily mean
That the ones we love will stay

And sometimes there are people
Who just can’t love you back
No matter what we say or do
There’s something that they lack

And maybe it’s because
Some people just can’t see
The importance of a person
Who’d give everything like me

Indulging

I absorb you
All of you
Drink you in
And the filter
Never changes
