La Jemme Poetry
…
You feel the stone beneath your back, it’s hard.
Fall apart, lie ontop of it, and groan.
Felt in your deep bones, the cold wind it mares,
The tension starts drifting in and out, moans.
Unfortunate we’re far apart.
Our minds impart, shattered haste.
Playing games wait, we sin for heart.
Love in us cannot sate.
While time flies by, you wonder berate.
Have some patience; rumours arise.
Do not despise our love it waits,
Us to but lose; we’ll surprise.
Lazily we move, we’ll time again prove,
Block demon’s soft soothe, a lie of our groove.
No demon guards love; God, love, he approves.
The kind that’s grown, realized with heart.
Love that is smart, patient, kind, never departs.
Where your whole heart is honest, love’s hard.
Dreams alight us both; we’re a work of art.
