    IMAGE IN MY MIND

    Mind

    an image once kind

    an image once sublime

    an image in my mind

    fading in and out of my consciousness

    the crest of the waves

    the forbidden places

    and the love we made

    traces

    of you are like scented flowers

    on the morning breeze

    the hours

    with you now we are apart

    feels like a tease

    two hearts

    once one

    now must find solitude to recover

    the morning sun

    shines a ray on the place

    where you were my lover

    and now

    an image in my mind

     

    intimate thoughts

    a necklass

    i place around your pretty neck

    reckless

    love we sought

    still those quiet nights i wont soon forget

    the flight of a robin

    stirs

    me from my reverie

    what incurs

    we will see

    after all love controls its own destiny

    the spill of wine

    laughter when i kiss your pouty lips

    time after time

    i recall how you would pause then take a sip

    december snow

    melts as dictated

    by the seasons

    complicated

    i know

    right now is not the time

    to search for the reasons

    that you are

    an image in my mind

     

    a tale of two cities

    so very near

    yet far apart

    some fears

    unfounded maybe we should have ignored

    them from the start

    a picture of you

    or two or three

    i gaze

    at throughout my restless days

    amazed

    that we lasted

    yet if two lovers have the will

    god finds a way

    thinking of you

    as sure

    as you think of me

    the cure 

    for us is as close as our hearts

    yet vast as the sea

    no more tears

    i am just a man

    like any other

    trust in your plans

    and remember that we were spiritual lovers

    when you see 

    my image in your mind

     

    i hear your voice

    and i know the love you feel

    for me yes i do

    no appeal

    for the drama i swear i dont 

    know how we made it through

    we are both mature

    funny

    how that sounds so damn trite

    sunny

    are your days

    cold and  alone  are your lonely nights

    i always say

    bridges dont burn

    if we learn

    what we discern

    will determine if we deserve another turn

    lets chill

    for a spell

    im open to doing it all again

    time will tell

    if we write a love story

    or what could have been

    just 

    an image in your mind
