Sights We Pass

I’m stuck here and stoned
Who’d ever thought
I’d end up here less than alone?

Everyone all got
Lost in the evening
And so am I but
My feelings are stuck on the ceiling
So here I go
Please just let me grow
Oh, without a doubt I chase
Your heart past the whole town
Darling, what would I ever do without

A heart so true and about
Innocence and magenta green
Sticks and stones and tiny fragile bones

Why did you get stuck here with me?

Please, let’s both make a choice to be free
We have the answer calling
We’re on the right track
Traveling to- soon you’ll see
Those words mean something to you, don’t they?
You’re still on the red rocks, aren’t you?
I skipped out on the keys
I’m sorry
Do you love me yet, miss me yet?
Please
Don’t let go
Don’t end this show

A bit of a older one, for me at least. A newer one might be posted tomorrow instead of Sunday. (: Happy weekend.

Love will always find a way and if it can't, love will MAKE a way. I like these words from the Allman Brothers song, "Seven Turns" ""Love is all that remains the same, that's what it's all coming to." I believe that. I believe love is eternal and indestructible and the only thing of true worth in the universe. That's where it's all headed, where it's all going to. Bless. F.

I actually entirely agree, and don’t find much other people who feel that way either. Thank you so much for the kind review and I apologize it took me so long to respond.

The power of the heart and what it drives us to do. Falling in love and sometimes growing up too fast. No one can tell us to turn back. We have to suffer and see it for ourselves. Read this a couple times and really enjoyed it more and more each time. Great work.

You are very welcome and no worries at all.

A lover's tiff. What a quandary. Can't live with them, can't live without them. Love certainly is a roller coaster ride. Sometimes it can be salvaged, other times we have to let go. I felt turmoil here Vertigo Cat. Have a great day.

True love, stuck, but wanting to be free to grow to fly into a place of peace….how did we get stuck together….we must not…but there is still a love bond….and a feeling of loneliness…” do you miss me yet?” Shows us that this person has mixed feelings…..stuck? Or free?
Well done!
Best

A love poem. Elements of unrequited love? Just a hint of romantic desperation. Traces of the morning after. A portrait of a tender heart. This is what I see in these words. Exquisite.
