You conjure to exercise
your illuminating ways.
What you said was clear
but hindsight is in a haze.
***
You’re excited to please
eyes that look at you;
but any that do pursue
you alter and confuse.
***
Moving on some stage,
where you spin a trance,
do you remember what
we shared in a romance?
***
My vision is now astute.
Off of rocky shore I steer.
My compass now correct
but direction is not clear.
***
You my great adventure
were such a joy to learn.
Burn you were a beacon
too bright me I burned.
***
I’ve watched others try
do what I did to no avail.
You know I know better
than you know yourself.
***
I have separated fictions
that I know aren’t true
because I really still am
after years a shade blue.
***
Guilty I am that I made
above my God an idol.
I lost myself as you ran
your life at full throttle.
***
My veins ran pulsing in
arteries bringing me life.
You were both my first
crush and my first strife.
***
I connect the dots now,
the shimmer light drew.
I know how you did it;
find me now you do too.
***
You educated me fully,
such banks full of peril.
I remember everything
from Cupid’s first arrow.
***
Here still I have no spite;
no bitterness I possess.
I find to find slumber it
my love to you I confess.
***
I’m versions of what was.
Dear I still hear your voice.
My death it’ll be out at sea
due to my youth’s choice.
I just experienced this….

I’ll say this, whatever your experience may have been I find it funny how much we as a society experience we can relate with others who have been through the same sort of things. I find somewhat of a comfort in this fact. Thank you for reading and sharing. 😁
