LOVE VISIONS
A LOVE STORY
My darling, I sit on the crumpled sheets as they
  lay, tenderly touching every fold,
not wishing to disturb the memories they hold


Your yielding love in the dark of night
your soft exciting caresses and full kisses are
  so right.


Your masculind hands pressing my eager body to yours
   the beat of our hearts - the unspoken words,
the rythem of our bodies beckons obedience of our minds
  with perfection one seldom finds,


Our eyes could not see, our ears could not hear,
   our love captured all
as you thrust forward
   to the grasp of my love well.


I awoke, your lips were on mine - my need for you is
   ever great,
dearest, your touch melts doubts and morals,
  I offer,  I need, I take.


Please smile as I call your name when you leave,
and promise, oh promise my darling ----
you will return to me again.

"Are you mine" you ask of me,
as yes, my darling - for long shall I be


Your love has melted the sharp teeth of hate
that ground deep into my heart - my soul it did taint,


I was seared from the flames of the jaws of hell
that brought screams from my throat
and confused others as well.


Stark naked before them, susceptible to stabs
  from spears of revenge
the liquor of your love softened the scabs and
   pulled me back,
your rose blooms again.


Please keep me - as your flower
cut my stem and I should live no more.


Am I yours?  Do not ask again
I am yours ---- and always have been.

He
"The seawind soughs in the marshgrass
And the day flames out,
The beach sands cool,
And the surf grinds on the shore.


Gulls roost on pilings, and ruffle
Their feathers into order.


They face the wind,
And the days goes too soon.


But you are here
And by me near


Let us feel no sorrow
For we have tomorrow
And tomorrow and tomorrow
He


A  jeweled dawn comes,
summer dew droplets like tears hover
On palm fonds
Outside my jalousied window.


The morning's air
   coming over the Gulf,
Is light as angel's breath.


Sleep never came to me
And I must hurry for the world awaits.


The sun grows larger
And squeezes light from a celestial tube
   onto the pallets of day.


My tumbled bed.
Where I lay awake
Is empty laundry, and it has been.


And we are not greeting the sunrise
With sleepy good morning kisses
And newborn eyes.


He


I agonize,
With Lonliness.


I need you like the sea
Need rain and rivers to renew it.


Since you left,
I have missed you.


I have wanted you like a starveling
Wants food and surcease from pain.

He


I don't give a damm
whether you're mad
or not.


I still love you.


And, I'd rather be with you
than any other woman alive or dead
Sometime, you will find this
   and perhaps look at it before
you throw it away.


I came here because you are
   the most important person
in the world to me.


Because, I want you and I need
you ---- you.  No one else
   will do.


And because I worry about you,
   and because I love you
And because I want to take care of you,
If you will let me.
He


Down the long corridor of my days,
I go alone.
Your arm is no longer linked
                     in my arm.


And we will both miss many things
along the way
because we walk separately
Oh, my sad darling
   do not weep for me,
for the seeds of devastion
   devour me with glee!


Happy  - was our marriage day
   and sorrowful were the hours,
That floated away.


We knew not one another
   our love simmered on
Jealously was kindled ----


Our love was gone.

Your eyes are sullen by my  words,
   how I wish they had not been heard.


Through my words,
   I must appear despicable,
And you wonder - how could I have loved her
   What did I see?


She means nothing at all
   Nothing to me.


I gave you my love,
   with a promise or two.
Now, my dear,
   There are  problems,  with you.


Yes, darling, this is true,
   you failed me
And I failed you.


And so, my sweet, sweet,  heart
Adieu!

He
April weeps for you
                                          no more.

The promise of May
warms my heart
with honesty from the mouths of those
                                           who care

Gone are the winter months of cold deceit
which froze the fragments of my heart.

Go back
                           to your yesterday and morrow
that I may breathe
