Surrender - Made on impulse, a brief poem about how I feel when I remember a certain somebody. Forever is a long, long time to ignore me but we don’t have forever, do we? even the mountains bow to the sea, eventually. a mistake becomes mere blunder, as cloud soaks up the lightening and smothers the thunder. until I’m awash in dreams of sheer surprise and wonder. dreams bent on delusion, despite no confusion I still linger a while, on your amber spots and speckled smile. searching for hidden hearts In corridors of dark where every move you made left it’s mark. that’s where you stay, In my memory everyday In all I can remember, In you swoop and out sweeps my surrender. |

Brilliantly conceived and expertly written. A lament of pain what most of us have been privy to. Enjoyed this immensely. ~*~ I gave up feeling guilty just to survive a long time ago ~*~ |

I have felt this, but never expressed it so well. A |

I think sometimes feeling it is quite enough, rather than continue to dwell, haha. |
