change

i like it when you change
into something or other
different every time
almost

where's the next one
coming from
old skins are shed
new ones grown

but the look is the same
deep and green
where i'm sorry looks like
i still want you

someday

where i'm only human
looks like we are immortal
and that's what i choose
to believe

still there
in the sanctuary
i will never forsake
unlike others
whereupon you try
but they can't hear you
or perceive
nor shall they ever

god made these ears and eyes
only for you
and he made yours
only for me

destiny and luck
or fate and love

you decide

love

    every poem you leave is like a little dose of truth, hope and love. :)

    hi Felicity....I liked this.....but I think the first part of the peom was more successful......because in the second part, the language was stilted......I think the first part is better, but somehow you became conscious of your craft.....and blew the second part......it's still good overall though.....liked it......
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......

    perhaps i'm reading too many legal papers lately and the language is lapsing into some formality that doesn't suit the rhythm.but sometimes the friction caused by the change in style can be just for kicks.

    i'm not out to impress but simply express.it's what we all ought to do.right?we should be loved and appreciated for who we sincerely are,not what somebody expects us to be.i live by that-i believe in acceptance and expect it too.

    tenderness,intimacy,blessed sweetness-this i reserve for my true love.

    and licky doggie kisses.
