Inspiration

The sight of you
brings luster back to a
tangled, dull hair.

Lips arched to smile
with thoughts of you near.

The thrill of romance
opens sad tired eyes.
and a life with you
makes it worth another try.

Call me. Love me.
Make me believe love works
for a hopeless me,
--saddened by memories
--damaged by hurts,
--rescued by pain
hoping it’s you to heal
what’s not sane.

Let’s talk no sense.
drive me all night long.
kiss me all over.

Then go. Leave...
without looking back
never coming back
because you are just
an illusion,
-- a fragment of my past;
an inspiration
--to haunt me sad
for the rest of my life!
