Hazel.

And once I break, I break.

And I could rain with just a look into your eyes
Although it would not be achieving anything
And I could gleam with just a kiss of your lips
But there we would be yet again

 

And yes, love.

That is a bad thing.

 

My eyes, a dripping desert
My heart, a smoldered mess

My hair would be delighted

To lay upon your chest.

 

Hazel are the walls now

I tell them "go away!"

Hazel, Hazel, Hazel, Hazel

Day, by day, by day.

 

Enough.

 

I threw out your roses today,

I fed them to the creek.

For every time I passed the sink,

My stomach liked to ache.

 

My eyes, a heated pink

My heart, a hurried drum

I know you thought you had me

Pressed underneath your thumb...

 

But Hazel are the walls now

I tell them "let me be!"

Hazel, Hazel, Hazel, Hazel

I see, I see, I see.

 

I remember the day I saw you,

You brought me smokes and a warm embrace

 

I remember the day I kissed you

You lifted my chin, I covered my face

 

I remember the day I loved you

I believed your smile, your words were lace

 

Hazel are the walls now

The color's getting lame

Dull muddy green

You'll never ever change.

I think this is a beautifully expressive poem - sadness, pain, yearning, anger, oh, oh, oh..... and love, of course. I hope you're happy now. Sue

Thank you very much for the review. Sadly, I'm not so happy.

[Sue Noye Clark]

But you won't ever give up believing that you can be happy, will you......

No, I've been there too many times.
