Secret places and hidden wishes

Life and love is never fair. We don't get what we need. We get what we deserve.

 

                                Secret places and hidden wishes

I have  been dreaming of you again my beautiful Liz.  I saw your face today and I was driven to madness. I wanted to call you and tell you.  I need you near and  I need to hear your voice. I wrote a 10,000 words of love for you. You shall never read.

--

I love you, I love you dear Liz, I love you
My dear eloquence lady.
I hide the need of a holy love.
A love that would be merciful and so damn sweet.
I see your face in my sweet dreams.
I awoke with your sweet name on my lips.
I whispered the sinner's prayer.
Please God, give  me what I should not have.
Allow me to know love topmost peak and perfect ending.
Dear Liz. In the darkness of lonely night.
Do you whisper my name?

                Delicious love
She told me. In the darkness. The flowers cannot grow and love cannot live dear Johnnie.
We are just lover's fasting in desire and want.
Love is not merciful.
We will find perfect place, needed kiss and embrace.
Someone who make us sing and dance till the morning light and show us.
We are their life and their only joy.
Holy and kind love we cannot have.
Johnnie, Poet's wish is deadly sin and lover's who must have secret places and hidden wishes
are like the flowers who cannot feel the sun.
We will die wishing for things we cannot have.

Today I escaped. One way ticket to Monterey.  I called liz and I told her. I'm dying and so damn lonely. When you need to escape your life. I will be by the sea.  I will become the Monterey Poet and I will tell the young writers. I knew a beauty once. I tasted the sweetest wine and kiss. I danced with a Angel once and we shared Lake Saint Clair. I will tell them. Fools accept their fate and allowed everlasting love to die and be forgotten. I love you Liz. I have loved you for a 1000 days and nights. I told the Poets at the poetry reading. The Gods always win. Make us feel so damn good. Show us sweetest kiss and place. Then teach us. The irony of life is. We get what we deserve not what we need.

We cared so much for the person who left us
We cared so much for the memories we made with them
We are like becoming the prisoners of time
But no matter how deep we dig in our hearts
Those who are gone
Those who left
Will just become faded memories
As we go on living our lives
Hoping that the baggage's of the past will stay in the past
But as fools as we are
We left ourselves living behind
Wanting to relive the moments back then
But if we could give ourselves a chance
And trick ourselves to love like the first time
Like we never hurt before
Maybe we won’t bother remembering the person who left us
And start anew.

I'm going to hop on this bandwagon, cause repeating the same review would be redundant, I'll just say well done both of you.

[~Sarah~ Idríel T..]

I read this and somehow it made me feel so sad.

Evening, moon, beach, ocean, dance and wine, these words appear in many poems of yours.
Live and love.

I think that you deserve more, my poet friend.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Sarah. I believe we get what we deserve. I did okay. I have a kind wife and many grandchildren.

[~Sarah~ Idríel The Fair]

I'm glad to hear that. I wish you all the best, dear friend. Be safe.

I think when reading your writes that you make more of us women wish for a smooth talking man like you. I prefer actions to words. [smiling] Valentine

[Coyote Poetry]

Without words, the possibilities of action is nada. Must excite the mind to excite the body.

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

This is amazing, sir. I love this. The images are perfect for your piece. We often dream for a kind of love that is not with us. And somehow we wish that the people we dream about thinks of us, too. This is really great!

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Dhaye. Life gives us we need.

[SOUL LESS]

Really hope it's true. It is beautifully written and I can totally relate. Though I still haven't worked up the courage. I'm one of the fools :D

[Coyote Poetry]

Take great courage to embrace love. One a great writer wrote name "John Dryden". Better to separate than to live in a dead house. " Few are fearless in love.

Like how this reads , sometimes it's not meant to be but the thought of it inspires.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Moon. I appreciate the comment.
