Young Love

By craig2

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

In younger days naivete, your smiles by my side, my lies, fantasies - your name haunted me as though it were my own. By chance we spoke, danced through dreams - clowns in a medieval play - mocking phantoms surreal, landing delicately, unscathed, from psychedelic shadows whispering halloween. To touch your lips, your hands, fiendish acts of hollow men - all that I saw was your smile as it smuggled the glow, steeled the space between your eyes and mine. Finally I come to know her as I come to know myself, I beg all men to find her, make their love complete.will be in March 'Spinnings'.
