Amused by thoughts
That you can’t see
Unknown to you
As you smile at me
Filled with vision
An image sustained
Graphic in nature
My heartbeat remains
The strength of my existence.

Such beauty in that cheerful gleam
And scent I can’t deny
Embodied in the shell of dream
A heart that cannot lie
Yet searches for the words to say
To pass to you this need
A way to have you see my way
Your soul I wish to feed
From the fountain of my consistence

We share that which is safe inside
For others to see as they may
But to break from this mold where thoughts reside
And disclose all that’s bitter dismay
With each word I have writ
Filled with passions unseen
Convert words where visions fit
Encompassed by that I dream
Now built up by my insistence.

Undaunted by my dream contrite
You pass your smile again
And hope indeed that we just might
Create that perfect blend
The kiss to change that path we take
The doorway that I seek
And knowing now, all at stake
My presence can’t be meek
The result of my persistence.
