Mishaps perhaps, by chance to enhance
Enthroned to exist, within love slips, I land
Drunkard sailing in oceans of unforgiving notions
I thrust forward, only to pull back opposing devotions
As my emotions howl and hum on melancholy chimes
I find new shores to explore, adventures for a time
Only to depart to faraway callings from distant homes
Always a native to hearts thrown overboard, love’s diaspora
I sail these lonely waters, in search of a love that is right
Attracting shooting stars, which I follow, til dawn’s early light
By day out at “see”, I confuse lustful mirages for being for me
At night I wade thru circles of affections, trying to stay wake
Daze comes and retreats, finding others broken like me onboard
Unable to remain afloat, love dies, although the hope still floats….
Beats of a heart is heard above the waves crashing against this vessel
Veins of perception push me to keep on enduring love’s connection
Forever 2b married to memories of that beautiful land….before sorely departing…..
To travel yet again by the tears of the broken hearted
