Oh Amanda
“You’ve changed since last time.
That smile gives my heart getters,
Now I can truly breathe.”
Delight engulfed his anticipating eyes.
Embowered by tingling jingles,
face fretted, lingering with twilight.
Heart stern and surging with each pound
Intertwined, she came to his embrace.
Calculator emotions consumed him
as the moment exceeded his horizon.
Setting sail on life’s pinnacle had
never had such gentle tides before.
“M’zakes, you haven’t changed”.
Her voice lulled his deaf ears.
Intoxicated by this starlet’s
Notes of elixir, sobriety became
an act of the forgotten past.
“I’ve yearned for light to seep
through the blinds of this day, Amanda”.
Ere she planted forborne hands
Hushing his gaping mouth
as fog grew in her throat.
Closure came down the trembling
Wretch to raise his adorned face.
She whispered blooming words from
her pious mouth upon his gaze.
They waltzed across to cupid’s strings
Playing slave to intricate words unsaid.
The crawling night shrugged
at the first glance of day and so did
her image as his fantasy faded away.
She was a figment of his imagination
but soon they would meet again.
Out of sight
doen't mean out of mind.
The mind is a powerful tool
