I want to crow
to the world
the way that I feel,
to let everyone
know
That she
is perfectly
the one
for me.

From high atop
this balcony,
this height
she
has risen me to,
I survey
and purvey
and try
to decide
who will be
my sacrifice
to her
tonight.

I wish to
spell out my love
with true artistry,
with beauty
and grace
and attention
to detail.
The same suffering
again and again
makes me lose face
and jaded hearts
cry to no
avail.

My spirits are lifted,
my heart
is made gay,
her love
has lifted
my soul,
banishing the gray.
I used to long
for the night,
it’s every delight,
now I long
for the
day.

What can I do
to show my love,
my Darkness
appeals to her.
Hearts and flowers,
I know nothing of,
unless you count
being a butcher.

Compassion
and courtesy
just have
never appealed
to me
you see,
I am more the kind
to play with your mind
and toss
you away
but now I find
she brings out
the best in me.

Yes, love can bring out the best in a person....but if taken away, love can bring out the worst, too.

Wonderful work.

I know how this feeling is...i was there...and sys. is correct in that love can bring out the best but if lost can bring out the worst....but i also think that no matter how bad it seems when that love is lost... if the love is true...then the best will still come of it...like some very wise people once said...always look on the bright side of life...a lost love doesnt have to be lost forever...

Excellent piece here, Dream, your words well penned - bottled up emotion pours forth from this one.
