At the edge and a doorway,TX

You spoke to me
I told you I was coming
Coming to find you
To meet you, to greet you, and to be with you My Knight
Stepping off a plane into arms of a lover true
There is the High priest
Waiting in clothing of blue
Royality in disguise
Such sweetness my eyes have laid upon for the first time
Standing, waiting, anticipating-- me
I fall into those arms
They carry me away to my very own Wonderland
Looking into eyes of rich dark chocolate
Filled with excitement, surprise, and hope
I am enraptured--floating away
With a voice so smooth
As if it could melt butter
Touches from your hands to my cheeks bring thoughts
Thoughts of rubbing faces to the softest towels after a warm bubble bath
Kisses that seem to last forever
I have found you
Found what I was looking for--for so long
All of this is realized though the Jester of Heartache
Who is a lot like me
He reminds me that love is truth
Love is fair
Love hurts
There is laughter shared
We find ourselves in a neverending stream of tears
You are everything that I need right now
Still I find myself heading back home without you

Love,
Lady

Thank you Modest Mouse and Jester of Heartache for showing me the best time of my life in California. I love you guys.




Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.

Ladycat,
How sad to love and lose, yet still we have the memories. Good Write.

Kethry,
I didn't love and lose. It is just love from a distance. Cali is along way away from TX and for right now I just have to deal with it. Thank you for reading it though..

Love,
Lady

Lady, this hits home for me, I left my love in California too, and I also did a poem about him of this same name.
Interesting how cats can be similar, hm?
Sweetly beautiful and heartfelt poem.
