WE HAVE THE MOST PERFECT LOVE

We have the most perfect love

We fit together like a hand in glove

Because our love for each other

Is greater than our need for each other

OPEN YOUR ARMS TO CHANGE

 

Open your arms to change,

With open mind embrace the new

Open your heart to new possibilities

But to your values remain true

ARE YOU WEARING A FISH’S TAIL?

 

Are you wearing a fish’s tail?

And is it actually swishy?

I guess you must be a mermaid

You’re a very dishy little Fishy

THERE IS KNOWLEDGE I NEED TO KNOW # 9

 

There is knowledge I need to know

Which will put me in the box seat

Such as, if vegetarians eat vegetables,

What on earth do humanitarians eat

MOUSY HEADED MAIDEN FAIR

 

All I can do is stand and stare

At the mousy headed maiden fair

The girl with the dirty-blonde hair

Oh beautiful maiden standing there

With tresses of dirty-blonde hair

Please be the answer to my prayer

WHY DOES THIS LOVE ENSURE A CONSTANT HEARTACHE?

 

Why does this love

Ensure a constant heartache?

Love should be a salve for your soul

Not a dagger to pierce your heart

Instead of an empathetic companion

With shared values and mutual respect

I get lies, evasion and bitter betrayal

And when my tattered heart

Lies savagely broken

There is no sympathy,

No remorse

Just a shrug and farewell

I THOUGHT THIS TIME

 

I thought this time

That the love was strong

Founded on solid rock

And standing on granite piles

That would weather the ages

Like a great monument

But at the first hint of storm

The granite crumbled away

And the love fell with them

 

I curse my poor judgment

And my lack of prudence

As once again I am alone

And my heart is broken once more

The old adage echoes in my head

“What doesn’t kill you

Makes you stronger”

But the words are as empty as my life

But I will make myself stronger

I will make myself an island

My heart will be as stone

And my resolve will be as granite

Then my heart will never break again
