The other day I bore my soul
Wrote a song about being
Overjoyed
Overloved
And still I can't get over you

Let so many days go by
Wasted energy on a lie
You prophsized as truth

So,
Truth be told
You make the light

I waited to hear you speak
Felt your kisses in my sleep
But sleep it was
It was a dream
Like so many of the
Lust love gave me to
Whisper your name

Being as bright eyed
Even naive
Never could I have thought
You couldn't be deceived
Even the intelligence you
Emitted to me
I could not beleive you
Thought of me
Other wise your friends
Laughed at me

While you smirked and
New me
I still waited to see if
You were thee

So being lonesome and in love
My eyes beheld a mystery

Why, to me, it seemed
Did you open up doors
Make water crash shores
Make women out of whores?

I was so afraid of being
Uncovered
My feelings stripped
Naked
Sore
Brazen
My heart unvieled to you
Yet you still hold back

I learend from friends of a lifetime
That you knew
But I was still blue
In the blackness of dark
Nervous and afraid of your
Heart

So now it is true
That I belong to you
You not wanting me but
Me needing you

Too hard it is for me to
Say no to you
Because my eyes still new
Your face I cannot behold
Without beholding 10,000 times two

So singing mad love songs about you
All I do is think about you
And writing tells stories more true
If I had my way
Surely you would be closer
But long ago and so far away
Did I fall in love with you
As I fly without wings
As the sun goes down on me

My castle of love has been thrown
The sandman no longer roams
And though you don't believe
That they do
They do come true
For did my dreams come true when I looked at you
I'm completely overjoyed
Overloved
Yet still
Now and forever
I cannot get over you

Your lips inspire poetry
That's what you are to me
Lines written in the heart
About a tongue grazing the
Luscious lips of an
Unknowing heart

Yet he knows
But does he hold true
The true meaning of
I do?

I do everything to keep from you
Yet you kept my heart
With you
As I hold this secret
From you

So still as I lay in waiting
For you
I am still overjoyed
Overloved
And honest to God and true
Am unable to get over you

Two truths
One love
Me
You
We two
Too true
I do
Love you...

I loved the open feeling in this, a veritable non stop flowing stream of emotional longing. It's not the kind of write I feel comfy critiquing, as it is an unpretentious straight-from-the-heart kind of piece that is far too personal for me to critique.
Besides, I am a lousy critiquer. LOL

I enjoyed the heart write.
