Jade

The whirlpool of feelings

That crowd my mind
When looking into your eyes,
And fight in vain
To keep confined
Are hard to verbalise.

The words you say

Are all infused
With sweet simplicity,
And leave behind
A heart confused
By electricity.

The gentle touch

Of tender hands
Within a shortening night,
Opens up heaven
And all its lands
As darkness turns to light.

To fall in love

Then have to part
And leave the one you’ll miss,
Yet go on fighting
Heart to heart
With only a photo to kiss.
