J David Photography - Don't Go

 

                                                              Don’t Go

 

Finding the light is impossible twice,

Life is fragile, cold as ice.

You walk the path knowing not,

What might be gifted from spirit’s lot.

 

Imagine if roses had a soul,

Indeed inspiration for poets droll.

A glorious garden it would be,

Yet it’s rapture touches all save me.

 

I have found a beauty beyond the rose,

Escaped from heaven, Do the Angels Know?

Came to me on a strawberry breeze,

Mind and body begged to tease.

 

Placed in my hands and needing care,

Of her grace I was not aware.

Men like me are battle worn,

Hearts blackened, the essence torn.

 

I didn’t deserve, yet there she stood,

A smile, a laugh I wish she would.

Happiness was not mine to own,

The Joy of love I have been shown.

 

Have you ever had it…right there?

A perfection only Venus could share.

Watch her sleep, hear her breathe,

A sweeter sight I won’t believe.

 

My prayers were answered on that day,

The time my Angel came to play.

Disappeared the armor on my chest,

She made me a man at his best.

 

Life’s cruel hand waves across,

My field of dreams forever lost.

Words of love a song to me,

Desperate regret for what cannot be.

 

I stand alone, feel not her touch,

I return to rage, my companion as such.

I am a better man for knowing her though,

I hope she knew I loved her so,

 

My only words left are Please…Please don’t go.
