Hey all, just joined this community and I’m hoping to share a couple of my poems here. This one I wrote over a decade ago. Here’s the text:

Won’t you understand
Why I bit my lips
When I took your hand
And cherished you in small sips.
I’m distracted by the touch of your hair
Your scent and I rejoice in quick sighs
Here, a moment we could share
Here I’ll breathe in deep gorgeous eyes.
You smile beneath our chosen tree
Eyes lit up in a glimmering shine.
I’ll laugh forever in our awful glee
At last freed by burnt bridges and that ignored sign.
But cold memories and abandoned lives build a mass;
We’re taught to remember all is made of glass.
