ARROWS DOTH FLY FROM CUPIDS BOW

 

Arrows doth fly from cupids bow

And an enchanted cascade of arrows

Lays the unsuspecting lover low

Who then his heart he must bestow

HELD IN A CASTLE KEEP

A woman's love

Held in a castle keep

In a prison tower

Where passion cools

And time dims desire

She waits in her prison

And dreams of a knight

Who will release her bonds

Rekindling the fire

And returning her to the world

SWEET LYRICS OF AFFECTION

 

You whispered words of love

Sweet lyrics of affection

Their sublime sound caressed me

Like a summer breeze

Refreshing sultry skin

Each fresh loving word

Mesmerized me anew

And I knew my heart was lost

And I knew that I was found

YOU BLEW SOFT BREATH

 

You blew soft breath

On the embers of my memory

And breathed new life into me

Resuscitating a redundant heart

Until I unlearned how to fear

I unlearned how to doubt

I unlearned how to exist

Then I felt the warmth of the sun

Once more on my face

I felt the transformation

From loneliness to loved

RISK

If you wish to achieve

The greatest love

It involves taking a risk

And like achieving

The greatest of goals

Sometimes it means a great risk

But nothing worth having

Comes easy or risk free

I MUST READ BETWEEN THE LINES

 

I must read between the lines.

To find the reasons why

So when you say, "I'm sorry",

Look me in the eye

So that I might know

If I caught you in a lie

I KNOW I PROMISED NOT TO CALL HER

 

I know I promised not to call her

But I just had to speak to Joyce

She smiled when she picked up the phone

I could hear it clearly in her voice

And how I needed to hear that sweet sound

A sound to make angels rejoice

And when she spoke my name

I knew I’d made the right choice
