Yesterday's Promise...A Poem by JvonneWritten in collaboration with Patient Poet (Yos)I found a crack
in your wall this morning, The high wall
you built around your bleeding heart You left it
there for me to look through. I found you
sitting in a corner, Waiting to
spread your words, Like red roses
on white satin sheets… Take me into
your heart, Open the
windows to your soul, Let me into
your shadowy ruins Allow me to
alter your sky… To walk through
the corridors of your mind Catching your
thoughts and setting them free I’m longing for
your gentle touch Would you let
me lead the dance? A slow romantic
triple meter Waltz May I drown in
your sweet sent once more? Do you hear me,
when I call? Lost in
translation, so far apart… Do you feel me,
when touch? A stranger you
have become Show me the way
back to you... Lead me like
before in our special dance Take back the
magic that once was. The romance
that once was us… I watch as you
take flight Your slim body,
free of restrictions Making small
cycles around my wounds I close my eyes
to remember Beautiful days
gone by Just before
dark clouds covered our sky. As we lay on
that old familiar couch Holding you in
my arms like so many times before… Do you still
hear my heart beating? Could you truly
understand? Reflections,
memories… All a blend of
pink and white spots in your eyes. And I realize,
you’re no longer mine… © 2012 JvonneAuthor's Note
