A good morning, indeed
(Inspired by Cocobutterskyn's "even if...")

Locked in the imagery
Of past “mine and your” time
Two hearts aligned
My time was always…your time
And there was nothing I could not find
In you


Spur-of-the-moment needs
Inspired me
…Never surprised me
With, or without,
Urgency
I understand your
Subtle needs
…The way we used to be
The luxury of
Anytime-is-the-right-time
Liberties
And how we came
To be


There is no silly
About me,
Or you
Orchestrating
Non-existent Realities
Believed to be
Pain free
Coz no pain resides
Within me


Listen to me

Morning wake-me-ups
And evening sleeps
As Blues creep
Ever slowly into
No more
Coz no more
Defines yesterday’s
Indulging
Memories
Indulging my
Memories of you
How love was true
And everyday said
“I Love You”
Where no words
Need
To


I
Live
In the
Company
Of your liberty
Never misery
Never copied stanzas
Of others lives
Never contrived
…Questioning the happiness
Of another’s lives


O, but for the wise
The heart one less
Disguise


We are one

Tomorrow
We live on
We, forever, to be
Caught in the grasp of
One love’s squeeze
Free to be


One.

No one
Has ever said
I love you
In a better,
More passionate
Way.
Everyday
I heard you say
Words that never crossed your lips
Tiny sips of
What “even if…”
Brought to light
Is what I dreamt
Every night


You put me to sleep.

I’ve read
And re-read
The many lines
Of your heart’s words
And heard
The broken hearted cry
Of a soul that bleeds
Its misery


I tried to hide
The scars of my pain
In vain
Coz self misery
Isn’t hidden from self
And what we have left is
Opportunities…for giving
And listening
And honoring what was
And maintaining that love
An eternity
You and me
Will never fade
Or die
For our cry for oneness
Will never cease
We will always be


One.
 
I was going to say this piece left me speechless, but I know you know me speechless is impossible...so I was almost speechless. :) Baller, this is an incredible work that blew me away! Quoted are may favorite verses.
