unfulfilled love - unrequited love - love relinquished - life unlived...

we all are gypsies of a sort wandering traveling through this life other lives space and time here there and yon on roads less traveled - this is a written and visual journal of my own travels - imagined and/or real - come along with me - we'll dance among the stars under the sun and over the moon - we'll share our stories of love around the campfire - come along -

poetry from the heart...


POETRY FROM THE HEART - my own words dedicated to all the words left unspoken, the acts left undone - the love unlived unfulfilled -

i dance with you...only in dreams...

tweet me, but tweet me gently, please!

asked the north wind of the gypsy...







so who are you
gypsywoman

~
i cannot bear the world to see
who i'm not but want to be

i’ve just been playing solitaire
to live in love i do not dare

while i profess to love forever
i’ve loved another really never

i know you know it’s been a while
and i cannot resist your smile
~

so who are you
gypsywoman

to sleep...

dark are the days
darker still the nights
blackest black within my dreams

for me it did not pay
to love unleashed with all my might
left now with
just
my
screams

through and through
 
not till now
not till

liquid moonlight...


 
moonlight spilled onto her skin
seeping its way to her heart again
 filling her sleep with its liquid gold
keeping her safe from the dreary cold
of nights no longer warmed by him
and days no longer light but dim
.

the web of woe...

a web of their own they did weave
when first they loved and did deceive
for love was not theirs to conceive
they gave no thought to those who’d grieve
and lose their light from that night’s deed
a web of woe did they weave
when first they loved and did deceive
.

where none could see...

in our hearts where none could see
our love was free - free to be
bursting shoving upward it did soar
to the gods we begged for more
but
like this frigid mount of heavenly blue
hidden from all who viewed
under the deep vast sweep
our love
did we
keep
