Liar's prayer

Reading ancient writers and computer was down. Started writing some new poetry. I hope you enjoy.

                                  Liar's prayer

My kind and new friend. We sat together in the darkness of the Irish Tavern in Austin, Texas.
We drank the good whiskey and heavy beer.
Her words begin to open up as the strong whiskey brake down the walls of disappointment.
Her coldness of eyes and thoughts become more warmer and fearless.

She asked me. What the use of love? Are we just giving opportunity for someone to tear us
apart and leave us for dead?

I ordered a double of Black Velvet and told my new friend.
"Sometimes we need good whiskey and drink.
Allowed us to forget.
We are soil and old. Forgotten."

I watched the once time  beauty queen accept my words with sad eyes and I whispered.
We need the lair's prayer sometimes. Beauty fade and anger take over.
All we have left is the ancient and lonely memories.
"Take me.
Touch me.
Make me scream.
Whisper liar's words of love.
Let's swim in leftover joy and pleasure.
No winner or loser my friend.
When there is nothing to lose or gain.
Just hold me tight for a moment or  a dance."

My friend smiled and laughed. She told me. "Your words are true. Sometime we can't win or lose.
Maybe it good to desire a draw in love. Maybe laughter and good conversation is better than
desiring too much.

My new friend came nearer. Laid her head on my shoulder. She raised her face up and asked.
"Would you take me dancing tonight?"

I kissed her and told her. "I would be honored. "
She asked can love be reborn?

I smiled and told her. "Love come when love desired. Can't force love or make another person
love you. Love take time and kindness. Many kinds of love. Real love is hard work and two strong
people. Better to not rush love. Love come when love desired."

"Love take time and kindness. Many kinds of love. Real love is hard work and two strong people."

~ I really like those lines, it really tells how love is process and how it has many faces. Love comes, it will, more often it comes unexpected, most of the time it takes longer to come. I remember a poem I made in valentines greetings it says:

Love has no boundaries...

Love takes loyalty,

Love takes trust,

Love takes effort,

Love takes a lot of patience,

Love takes courage and confidence,

Love is infinite,

Love is to live,

Love is to search...

Love is taking risk,

Love is caring,

Love is kind,

Love is compassionate & passionate,

Love is hoping and wishing,

Love can be anything...

Love is Love...

I know that everyone knows that a soul isn't complete without its other half.

How true, your words. Something as precious as love needs time to blossom, to breathe, to pulsate and make a being feel he or she is - at last, everything walking on two feet. You always write with your heart, always set things out so readers can make their own decisions. I have, Thank you. Blessings in and for your new year.

"Better to not rush love. Love come when love desired".
This is remarkable for me, CP. Indeed love shouldn't be in a haste. It will come to you at the right time, and place, with the right person.
I will remember those lines of your poetry. Thank you so much.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Dhaye. I read these lines somewhere in the words of the ancient great writers. Few will understand the emotion of love.
