Ceiling Fans by Invisible Don 9/7/09
Into her eyes I’ve stared deeply,
Tasted her kiss upon my lips,
Felt her breath against my body,
Our arms were once tangled in the darkness,.
So long ago, but never far from my thoughts.
She is beauty tilting slightly to the left,
As she stares far off in photographs,
Imaging in my heart to what wonder or dream.
Sitting here and looking to the past.
Which choice would have made the difference.
Which one would have kept all the good in my life ,
And which would have led me into your arms
Lying here staring at the ceiling watching the spinning blades
Above me they begin to move backward.
Fixing my focus on a single point in the wheel
It becomes clear that the past is lost
The strumming of the strings,
The timbre of the voices in harmony with the melody.
Ticking clocks and flipping pages marking the passage
In the stars above Eros laughs
Stumbling in my thoughts, fumbling for the words.
To sing from my broken heart and voice
Pushing back the demons of doubt and fear
Searching for a way to say and have it sound sincere
That all the silver, diamonds and gold in the world
Are not worth nearly the joy a smile from you brings.
Finding a way to tell you that I miss you
And long to hear your voice whisper in the dark
Hold me and never let me go
Other stuff tomorrow, have a great day and play nice in the neighborhood.
Ciao,
