It's been a while, hasn't it?
Since spring and things forgotten
It's been a while, hasn't it?
Since summer mornings and midnight goodbyes
It's been a while, hasn't it?
Since dewy sleep and bubblegum kisses
Yes, it's been a while
More than a while should be.
It's been a while since I trailed dew drops
It's been a while since I watched the sun rise
It's been a while since I stumbled and laughed
It's been a while since the sky set aflame
And flames drew lovers in a death embrace
Yes, it's been a while
More than a while should be.
It's sleepwalk and thunder
Is all we do now
Break pigeons nests
And warm eggs
Is all we do now
Catch hailstones
And lightning
And throw balls of fire
And wake and slumber
Is all we do now
For it's been a while since spring and things forgotten
It's been a while since summer mornings and midnight goodbyes
It's been a while since dewy sleep and bubblegum kisses
Yes, it's been a while
More than a while should be
And I can't hold on any longer
For it's been longer than long should be.

ReplyDeleteps: your poetry is amazing. i mean i suck at poetry so i am a bad judge. but i personally do think so.
Why thank you. And I don't have the patience for longer, that's all.
Deletepatience for what?
DeleteI keep my pieces short, mostly. I don't have the patience for elaboration. Except I seem to be doing just that at the moment. Oh well.
Deleteshort is good. but when someone comes looking, shouldnt he be allowed more than the summary? :)
DeleteReaders are allowed only stories. Stories behind stories are best left to be desecrated posthumously.
Deletewhen two individuals sit alone and talk. they are friends. no more no less. thats what i believe,
