Deeper and deeper we shall fall.

Some words.

                                 Deeper and deeper we shall fall.        

The Germany Summer was upon me,

the June warm days made everything come alive.

The blessed morning sun touched my face and I told her.

Please gentle rising sun, give me some reasons to smile today.

I sat upon a hill, waiting for no-one.

I had my Hemingway books and strong coffee.

I wrote into my journal.

"The sacred morning led me to you.

You are my German girl beauty with pale skin,

eyes of blue and the warmest heart, I ever known.

Did I tell you beautiful Brigitte,

in your eyes,

I can see everything kind and sweet.

You gave me the mercy of love kiss,

the lover's embrace and you taught me.

Love can be sweet, easy and it won't break your heart.

Deeper and deeper we shall fall and

I am drunk in love with you my love.

Before you saved me from my grief and my pity.

I was alone.

I remember you found me with my whiskey and my sorrow.

You took me to your home and you hugged me tightly,

whispered soft words of love.

In your eyes,

I saw everything beautiful and

when you laid your head in my lap,

sang Leonard Cohen songs to me.

The walls of my disappointment fell because of you.

Today I sit alone with the clear blue sky,

the sun kissing my face and I smile.

I love you dear Brigitte,

you are my kindest friend."

I heard a voice,

a beautiful girl in her Summer dress,

holding coffees and cakes,

walking quickly to me.

I stood-up and we embraced and she told me.

Johnnie, Johnnie. You never sleep and you love our place.

I knew you would be with the mountains and the wildflowers.

I awoke alone, not even a note for me!

But Johnnie liked to write alone, do you want me to stay or to go?

I brought her close, laid my head into her bosom and

I told her. You are my ambrosia and sweetest days.

Please stay and please always love me.

I shall love you till the sun shined no-more.

She smiled and she caressed my hair with gentle fingers,

and she whispered. I will be with you till you don't need me no-more.

oh my I relate...
One love wanted me to come to Boston with her.
I had no movement at the time.
we were quite good together...but my ability to compromised had been too compromised, so I stayed
put with some strong regrets.
wow this piece just knocked me down, Coyote.

I believe Jacob. All of us have regret. We are left with wonder. What could of been? Thank you my friend for reading and the comment.

A beautiful love story, as you write in your journal about the woman who pulled you out of a funk; your chosen words bring the romance to life; vivid descriptions of love, sensual pieces; very heart warming and at the same time a heart break. Fondly, Betty

Thank you dear Betty. I appreciate the comment. The kind people, we can never forget.

[barleygirl]

This love story uses a ton of details that I can relate to & it brings your story alive . . . not the Germany part (never been outside the USA), but the sensory parts of being together -- it's all so familiar & alluring. Your enthusiasm can be feel thru your words (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[Coyote Poetry]

All of us dear Margie. Allowed a kind person to leave our life. Become a good memory and a sweet dream one day to remember. Thank you for reading and the comment.

John, this is so personal, so very honest. The emotions are ultra romantic. I was able to picture the people and the scenes you described so eloquently. Some relationships are not meant to be, but we remember them till we close our eyes for the last time. Beautifully written. Lydi**

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree dear Lydia. We touch true love, rarely in a life. Thank you for reading and the comment.

A beautiful love always lingers in our hearts with its beauty, sympathy and empathy. But our forgetful soul always try to behold something else leaving us wondering why we did that.... I heard somewhere that love is more ethereal when you didn't get it and the two lovelorn heart stays apart... An amazingly beautiful piece

[Coyote Poetry]

You could be right. It seems, we forget the lover, who stayed. Thank you my friend for reading and the comment.

[Vertigo Cat1111]

This is absolutely beautiful, you have a way of putting such pretty words together, and making something utterly extraordinary, and creating a story wonderfully. We all have regret, love, happiness, and you captured so much in here. There's so much affection and memory in this, and thank you for telling these stories. We have to choose between a broken reality, in a love that should be perfect, or something else, and though it's better, we often have to drag ourselves through so much pain. An amazing piece.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you my friend for reading and the comment. I do agree with you. We seek painful place knowingly.

[Patricia]

I really enjoyed this piece and really can’t find the words to express it so I say this...this is a poem that any woman would love to receive, a beautiful heart on your sleeve

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you dear Patricia. I appreciate the comment.

dear John... my first love was Platonic as I was a Rose unfolding... his name was Johnny and he played Boogie Woogie on the Piano of any song that he knew the Melody.., It was quite an awakening... Life is the Music of Passion.
tenderly, Pat

[Coyote Poetry]

I do agree dear Pat. Music is a very important part of life. Thank you for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

[Chris Shaw]

So much love and affection in the telling of this story. I think many of us suffer from romantic regrets. Sadly we don't always appreciate what we have till it's gone. Wonderful read Coyote. Great description here and your words touch the emotions.
