Dear Heart
A Heartless Lover
Dear Heart,
//
Why do you hide,
where do you go?
//
For a moment all is fine,
then I guess I just don't know.
//
Dear Heart,
//
What is it, why are you afraid,
why won’t you speak?
//
Do you not want us,
do you not want this,
was that our peak?
//
Dear Heart,
//
What is there to fear,
we have known each other,
for so long?
//
We sang together,
we wrote together,
we watched together,
we had our own song.
//
Dear Heart,
//
Long it has been since we last...
sang and wrote.
//
Long it has been since we last...
watched and spoke.
//
Dear Heart,
//
Must this connection forever take a backseat?
Must these eyes never again meet nor greet?
//
Dear Heart,
//
Why the perpetual darkness?
Shall there never be light?
//
Must we not feel softness nor warmth?
Such an infinite, echoing twilight?
//
Dear Heart,
//
Why must this love go in vain?
Must it?
Let it not.
Hold hands again.
//
Let this love direct you,
and rebuild,
rebuild.
//
How else must one,
feel fulfilled,
be fulfilled.
//
Rebuild.
Be fulfilled.
//
Dear Heart,
//
All have slipped,
all have fallen,
all were not forever laid.
//
Some stood back,
stronger than ever,
others, forever played.
//
Dear Heart,
//
Perhaps you're not listening,
but deep down,
we know you hear.
//
Perhaps you've closed your eyes,
but deep down,
we know you're here.
//
Had you truly left,
we would have,
fallen by now.
//
You are not with us,
still you are,
with us,
somehow.
//
Dear Heart,
//
There is a marvel in your absence,
there is a magic in your presence,
there is something in your touch,
we feel your very essence.
//
You were the pluming, fragrant incense!
That glowing, radiant, far reaching fluorescence!
Excellent in character, the quintessence!
A walking, talking eloquence!
//
The all! The all! The all!
Sparkles, bubble, and froth!
Filled with such effervescence!
//
Radiance, radiance, radiance!
Effulgence, effulgence, effulgence!
//
Eloquence, eloquence, eloquence!
Excellence, excellence, excellence!
//
Elegance, elegance, elegance!
Relevance, relevance, relevance!
//
Beneficence, beneficence, beneficence!
Intelligence, intelligence, intelligence!
//
Dear Heart,
//
There is something special,
about,
you.
//
Almost too good,
to be,
true.
//
Magical,
mystical,
colourful,
through and through,
through and through.
//
Rejuvenating,
energetic,
unique,
you,
you.
//
Charismatic,
persistent,
unrelenting,
cement and glue,
cement and glue.
//
Dear Heart,
//
Tell us,
what shall remain,
of us?
//
Without,
just,
you?
//
Goals? Dreams? Ambition? Drive?
What could we live up to?
//
Dear Heart,
//
You are the finger licking sweet,
in this,
honeydew!
//
You are the morning life,
in this,
cock a doodle doo!
//
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo!
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo!
//
You are that ceaseless epitome,
in this,
dramatic deja vu!
//
You are the fighter in this prize,
beaten,
black and blue,
black and blue!
//
Your time is due!
Your time is due!
//
Be you!
Be you!
//
Review, review, review!
Renew, renew, renew!
//
Be new, be new, be new!
You knew, you knew, you knew!
Be you, be you, be you!
//
Be true, be true, be true!
Be you, be you, be you!
//
Through and through and through!
And through and through and through!
//
You,
You,
You!
//
O ever craved romance!
O glittery knight!
O shining armour!
O dazzling night!
//
O full moon,
just off white!
//
Strike us,
like an air tight,
love bite!
//
Be as you are!
Be as you are!
Profound with care!
//
Be as you are!
Be as you are!
Unfound and rare!
//
Astounding flair!
Dumbfounding glare!
Surrounding stare!
Resounding air!
Abounding prayer!
Expounding dare!
//
Matrimony! Matrimony! Matrimony!
What union! What union! What union!
//
No to separation! No to separation!
Communion! Communion! Communion!
//
Dear Heart,
//
We feel your touch,
as painful as it be.
//
And just like that,
dead to life, again,
we feel, we hear, we see.
//
See!
See!
See!
//
O fiery flame!
O jingling bell!
//
O spirited soul!
O watery well!
//
What with empty vessels!
What with empty vessels!
//
No! Lifeless pebbles!
No! Lifeless pebbles!
//
What with, such hollow caves!
What with, such shackled slaves!
What with, such windless waves!
What with, such grotesque graves!
//
Dear Heart,
//
You are!
You are!
You are!
//
We nought!
We nought!
We nought!
//
You art!
You art!
You art!
//
We thought!
We thought!
We thought!
//
Dear Heart,
//
You are that worthy body,
oh so independent.
//
We are this valueless chain,
you are that venerated pendant!
//
We sit,
needy,
waiting,
hopeful,
trusting,
dependent.
//
Death to life!
Death to life!
//
The dead are alive!
The dead are alive!
//
Dead or alive!
Dead or alive!
//
The dead are alive!
The dead are alive!
//
Live to die!
Live to die!
//
That is a life!
That is a life!
//
Deaf to life?
Deaf to life?
//
Have a life!
Have a life!
//
Be alive!
Be a life!
//
Come near Heart,
won't you?
//
We miss you.
//
Love from,
a heartless lover.
