...In Time...

Another Dose...

…In Time…
A Poem by Colton Warr

As the slaves were when the clouds would block out the North Star
I am lost without you
You have changed the way I see things, my gaze upon afar
There has been a coup
As my eyes connect to yours, I am removed
Past, present and future, you are my view

As time ticks on you give the illusion that it stands still
I am captivated by you
You are timeless, however, so why wait until
There has been a coup
I promise you the world, they all ask who?
I promise you my heart, it will always belong to you

I see you on a sailboat, somewhere lost at sea
And if I am lost in your sea, tell no one to rescue me
I see your return to Africa, yet you are with me
And if you would take my hand, would you be my South African Queen?
I see you on a blanket, somewhere beneath the stars
And if a bottle of wine is involved, I hope we go way too far
I see you and your smile, rocketing me to Mars
And if you are choosing me, I can only hope I’m up to par
I see you in my arms, on a porch swing on a lake
And if you would be my chef, I would consume anything that you’d bake
I see you laughing in Southeast Asia, a laugh so perfect for goodness sake
And if you told me that you loved me that would be the icing on the cake
I see you with our kids, there would be no better mom
And she would look so beautiful, if you dressed our daughter for prom
I see you walking down the aisle, my heart in your palm
And if you said “I do” my heart would detonate like a bomb

If I must conclude this note, this oath, this dose of my heart
I would conclude it by saying, you hit the bull’s-eye, my dear, when you threw your dart
If I must cease to adore you…no wait I could never
I would, if you’d let me, adore you forever

As you walk down the aisle, dress a colorful white
I cannot help but think, how could you be mine?
As you stare into me, on this warm summer night
I cannot help but think, how could you be mine?
If this feeling is a mountain, then I am ready to climb
Let’s make this feeling eternal, a never ending prime
As I hold both of your hands at an altar, I would have no words for your glow, as if I was a mime
As I lose myself in you, into your heart, into your soul, I fall in love with you, In Time.

Another master piece that will be added to my library. It looks like you have an endless source of brilliance, for this poem sure knows how to make me happy and warm inside. The flow was so beautiful, I narrated this poem with the voice of Morgan Freeman in my head and it sounded even more awesome. maybe one day, Morgan Freeman will narrate on of your poems in an awesome movie.

Good job :D

Thank you so very much, my friend! I do appreciate your kind words and positive energy in this review! I'm glad it could make you feel warm and happy inside! That's all that matters! This review is pure magic because you told me you narrated this in Morgan Freeman's voice! That is awesome!!! He makes everything sound better, doesn't he? I would be honored if he narrated one of my poems! Thank you so much for giving this a read!

No problem friend and he would even make an toothpaste advertisement sound cool. One must brush, for thy teeth is the mirror of your presence in this world of us (narrate in his voice) :D

I love this so much, when reading you can really feel the emotion and how powerful and strong the love is. "And if you 'I do' my hear would detonate like a bomb." That line literally made my heart race it was so perfect. I'm so in love with the idea of love. I just love this so much..

Really, really amazing.

It implies how devoted the guy is for the girl. Really sweet :)

And if you said “I do” my heart would detonate like a bomb"

Sweet and cute I feel like to give a favorite line here would be arbitrary and so feel personal. I enjoyed some of the specific word indicators the continents and am surprised the presence of a glass of wine and picnic blankets in it, the images evoked classic
