A Once Time

getting in touch with my inner poet

 

There was a time

When you would come rescue me

From absolutely nothing

But the boredom of day

 

And the fear of being alone

And worse than alone, lonely

So you came with an awkward smile

Repetitive laugh bearing words

The nonsense bouquet insanity requires

 

And for our short together moments

Peace, I found and trouble escaped

Love, the same I felt with her

Beat steadily in my brain

Endorphins cruising to bliss

 

I’d like to believe these will be

My last words to you, for you

But your essence; you are too ingrained

Inside all of me to simply fade

Quickly, completely

 

Lingering inside me is our once

Leaving the always impression

That has shaped me to who I am

So your moments of rescue are gone

But the impression goes on
