love wants what it wants
it has polished red talons and sculpted muscular arms see how it reaches and holds on do you remember me as I remember you or are we pixels in our darkness a lost signal disintegrating there are rooms in my heart with doors and a few windows once in awhile I open them to let someone in to my inner chamber its not an easy choice my heart's overwrought and overworked running on its last races usually my eyes are veiled I keep them as curtains pulled and closed and open them only at night to let the stars in \ so that I can wish and dream were you one of those stars or dreams were you? I asked aloud and silently for your answer I told myself as a brave sort of comforting that we share the same stars whether its daylight or night time... they are out there twinkling no matter what the time of day it is fanciful you would call me and full of impracticality withy my wiry head in the clouds all-a-tangled yes I am like that yes I was and still am but I make no apologies for how I am and how I've offered my woundedness, my heart to you and somehow you couldn't take me by my hand nor make promises love wants what love wants you said but life takes it away randomly and you lose yourself a bit and your steps unsteady themselves you were good with words weren't you indeed LEGAL COPYRIGHT FOR THIS POEM 5/29/2023 AND ALSO FOR THIS WRITER/POET/AUTHOR MELISSA A.
