Hair splayed across the pillow
Most in my mouth
Bus rumbling by
Noise of the morning
Dont want to wake you
Dont want to leave
Know
It's time to go

That look in your eyes
A kind of crimson mess
Swirling the world
Beneath your feet
To match your dress
To avoid defeat
To force retreat

Catching the world
Matching your hair
Spinning summer all you dared
For loving deep in your embrace
Of sky and eternity’s great race
To tomorrow’s immaturity
And grace

warmth and comfort

sadness and ache
and... a sense of longing for

I think at times we all can relate to this
it's life...sometimes nice, sometimes not so nice...sometimes yearning...and yet...they say in this world there is one special soul mate for every person...well sir, if that's a fantasy, I'm holdin on for dear life and I'll live in Disney Land forever.  (smiles)

Outstanding write David....very much enjoyed.

Is this a special lady? I've seen these lines in one of your other posts:

"That look in your eyes
A kind of crimson mess"

Summer Morns are the same lady

I wrote the initial when we lived in Chelsea in London

The next was in Chelsea and then I wrote this last year I think

I published the three because I took central themes yet I had change or my other half had and maybe I romantised but other things of those years made me change the not original words because I did lose those and their dreams of sun and a party and dawn
