Lost In Love
Stupid thing! I kick and curse,
Could this day get any worse?
To break down in this lonely place,
Here I could be lost, without a trace.
I start to walk down a path I see,
Still mumbling, how can this possibly be?
I walk and walk, forget the time,
Slowly anger, rage, no longer mine.
I hear the birds as they sing their song,
Amazed at how I feel, here, I belong.
The setting sun peeps through the trees,
Reflecting warmth from the autumn leaves.
I spy a cottage just round the bend,
I should rejoice at my journey's end.
A light shines clear in window framed,
A welcome to travelers that this way came.
I step through gates of oak, so strong,
From within I hear a familiar song.
I stand and listen for a while,
The haunting melody, makes me smile.
Softly I knock, afraid to disrupt,
The music inside stops, so abrupt.
Silence ensues, my heart starts to pound,
I take a deep breath, and stand firm my ground.
The door slowly opens, and in the dim light,
I see a dark figure enter my sight.
Features so fine, and long raven hair,
Eyes dark as night and pale skin so fair.
As your eyes meet mine, your full lips did smile,
For the light in your eyes, I'd walk many a mile.
"Step inside, welcome" I hear your sweet voice,
My legs stumble forward, as if I've no choice.
Enchanted and spellbound, that's what I am,
Captivated by, this mysterious man.
The air grows thin and my knees grow weak,
How could I know I'd find here, what I seek.
His melodious voice, the silence did break,
As he whispers again, my breath he does take.
"I have waited here patiently, yet one thing I knew,
The one I am waiting for, my love, it is you".
He gathered me into his loving embrace,
All fears and all doubts completely erased.
He place his full lips so gently on mine,
I was lost in his kiss, so heavenly, sublime.
All through the night, I lay in his arms,
Completely entranced by his loving charms.
Briefly a thought, could this possibly last,
Yet he seemed so familiar, as if from my past.
By dawn, my mind, could not have been changed,
All my life I had altered, changed, rearranged.
Become someone else for the love of another,
Yet this one I knew, I would love like no other.
When he asked would I die, for our love to survive,
My answer was swift, my death could not deprive.
Eternal our love, would go on through all time,
And transcend all the boundaries and heavens sublime.
No pain did I feel as I let go this life,
Sure as I was, of a fine afterlife.
You guided my spirit to where you did wait,
The ethereal cottage where we met, 'twas our fate.
The car, it was found, it started first time,
Why it was here, gave no reason or rhyme.
Few questions were asked on the fate of the driver,
No missing person, no accident survivor.
If you walk through these woods in the warmth of the night,
Ethereal music and laughter, sheer delight.
Will greet all your senses, but search them out not,
For these ghostly lovers, wish to be simply, forgot.
