After my earlier poem "The Hurt" this next work seems quite fitting to describe my renewed feelings about love. Eeeeewww . . . doesn't that suck?
Adrift amid clouds of despair,
From my aerie of exile I seek to repair
My heart in emotional suspension
Now arises from its hibernation.
As would a Phoenix from its ashes resurrect
So does my heart from limbo now elect -
In all its majesty and renewed vigor
Sing to the heavens in joyous splendour.
A million colors scintillate
And glow with a warmth they generate
A love denied now comes to rise
Partake of a romantic exercise . . .
Your presence and laughter in me ignite
Joys forgotten, lost in the night
You flood my senses with delight
Celebrate life in a whole new light!
And as love now inundates
My heart afire in frenzied waves
I pray the gods make me less sedate,
And drunk with this joyous Fate!
