TONGUE TIED

Here days of forlorn hope

When expressive words fly from me

Inwardly my search leans

To seek my emotions depth

When hidden feeling turns fathomless

I leaned towards sages past

In their knowledge fountain bask

But failure chokes my words back

I beg of Shakespeare

More heartfelt words to spare

So my verse will be music to you

Carrying my endless message to you

Since words come not from within

Search I then from without

With hope of finding thoughts

That says my deeper feeling 

From your deeper brown eyes

I hope to draw inspiration

From your full rosy lips

I should form wordy conversation

To my heart come easy words

That my mouth refuses to voice

My mind explodes in images,

Which to my eyes are vice

In my dreams you’ve lain long,

Waiting, for this one moment to show.

In my arms crook you hung

As I cast uncertainties from you.

In my home we now live

Sharing love that comes natural

In my bed we found bliss,

Consummated love eternal.
