…fate of a fool

Anticipation abounds

A sense of wonder surrounds

As I sit down to write her today

My heart opened wide

All these feelings inside

Offered to her every day

To give of your self

Asking nothing in return

An ethos long since learned

Seems this comes with a cost

A split in the heart

A love never there from the start

To forget all the pain

From so many years etal

Takes but one step that’s all

The day I met my Love

The day I like no other

The day I soon discovered

The day I let go

The day I let her in

The day I found love within

The day love recovered

…To love

Let me bask in this fate

Never let me wait

For one moment to be by your side

Not a dream at all

As I listen to your call

And I see the beauty of your smile

Reality you see

Tangible is this I call fate

Can never be denied

A love meant to be

Though many times did I fall

You were here all the while

…my Muddy Waters

As he says whatever he likes

His lies openly seen

By the eyes of the wise

On deaf ears so it seems

So I sit back and relax..

A scent of honeysuckle in the air

Gentle waves against the bank

Calm shines thru the rays

A leaf slowly sinks

Splash of of a bluegill

Snatching a fly

I lay here today

Eyes fixed on the sky

A stray cloud slowly walks

On it’s path so defined

The shape of a mountain peak

Soon left behind

This River has flowed

Her strength never questioned

Thunder calls out her name

Her anger to be reckoned

As she washes away the dirt

From a politician’s forked tongue

These Muddy Waters remember

Hate forever expunged

From our Land

Our Love…

You are always there for me

Forever in my heart

Though I couldn’t see

Forever apart

Two souls lost in time

A place in this world

Two hearts to find

Sometime, somewhere, someone to hold

At times we get lost

Unable to move

Held fast by a frost

Yet in each other we choose

Our love always glowed

In the day and every night

A beacon to each other

When fog mired our sight

We could have never endured

The troubles since cast

We are the beat in our hearts

A Love meant to last

My Love

Deep within…

To hold in my hand

To see with my eyes

To hear in silence

A cacophony of cries

To know she is there

A whisper in my ear

Yet never to touch

The irony so clear

To love her complete

Can’t bear to ask why

My destiny so crafted

Was this all just a lie

Never may I know

Is kept deep inside

So I give her my soul

I dare not ever hide

A breath in the wind

A pin to be found

Lost forever

Or a love deeply bound

If she could love me

The way I do her

Oh, should I never wake

From the bliss that she stirs..

Deep within..

The four…

The free walk resolute

Not a mirror in sight

Worn pebbles lay themselves

Down for the fight

He stood with no fear

As a tank bore down

Not many recall

But the masses on bikes are so bound

A sister so driven

Grasping every twig

By the nose led by Yo so is Kim

A grave she shall dig

Lastly tyrants takes all land

They deem to Putin their purse

How do we discern

Which one to Bb worse

I speak of the four

On horses they ride

Over the souls of the meek

You decide…

A watch…

Relentless is the pace

A never-ending race

As I look into a mirror

Each day etched upon my face

In a picture on a wall

The past as I recall

The image not as clear

Nor the memories that befall

A gift I found one day

I stumbled along the way

As journey’s end comes near

A watch left from the grey

To look ahead you see

A gift for you and me

Guided by the past

To choose the path to be

Each second in time called life…

Ani…

As clouds move in

And sunlight fades

From every forest

Into this empty glade

Left here alone

As silence calls out

Her voice now quelled

Emptiness does flout

Then I heard a faint sound

A rustle in the leaves

Calling from deep within

Shrouded trees

She calls out to me

But a whisper you see

My love forever be

Ani

…entwined we are

Time spent without

An eternity it seems

Only casual chit at times

Or sharing funny memes

Life can interrupt

Without reason nor rhyme

Separated by circumstance

Yet so sublime

Entwined we are

Though an ocean between

As the stars dance in step

Holding hands as they glean

Two bound souls

To walk in the night

Shadows in distant lands

Forever in each others light

…entwined and bound

giancaseywords ©

…from the past

On the edge of a thought

A rope held taught

As I sway with the wind in the rain

Lost in the grip of a storm

Though so forewarned

I refuse to hide from the pain

In the past I won’t stay

Yet it’s hard to look away

The future is only ours to gain

..And learn from the past
