…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
