Take my heart it’s here, it’s beating fast Those promises you made they didn't last These tears I cry I cry them for my love It came so fast I thought it from above But now there is a shroud surrounding you My lungs exhale the air I breath is blue The time you bent and kissed my wanton tears You crucified me and left me with my fears Securing warmth your body …..Next to mine Desire percolates my mind like vintage wine The sea in there dissolving in my head They meant so much the words that you once said The thorn of love had pierced my willing side In passion spent I cannot run and hide Your gentle soft and melting longing flesh My ardour rose the scent was sweet and fresh We floated out into the Promised Land But grains of hope are lost in drying sand I gambled all my cards the game was lost With raging love I pay the unknown cost The highway long is calling after me But thoughts of you they won’t set me free Like the Devil quelled in shame I now stand Please let my conscience hold and kiss your hand Jon Mewett Well folks this is a snapshot of a memory. That is, it is from the past,you know when you want things to be right but deep down you know they aren't. Jon [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 05-12-2000).] |

How well I know that.. This is wonderful.. I awake to a world I don't want. There is no transition for me. I am in heaven. I am in hell. |

This has an ethereal feel to it, kind of like a dream state. Sad in what could have been. Full of feeling. Wonderful write, as usual Jon. |

I knew from the title this would be fabulous, and I was not mistaken if anything it is even better than I thought it would be. You are very talented and I am glad you share your talent here with all of us. |

This is a wonderful poem, snapshots of memories pop up in my mind all the time...if I could only fix all my mistakes. Love and hugs, Lizzie "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |
