Lake : Love Poetry

written by Poet : RedMarquee


 

 

A perfect situation for awakening

To attend the lake

To punish me with what surrounds

nature's porch

It's easier to take

I didn't get on the trolley

Knowing the conditions of adverse paths

Staring into rippled faces

None of which I want to recognize

Neither of them kept me from harm

Of folly that tricked

Me with the mask of charm

My golly why didn't the better twin

magistrate , reprimand me where I faltered

The nerve of doubting God

And here is why I lay with the scorn of

imagination against grass blades

and lily pads with all of favorite

windpipes and jam sessions married to

the absence of lyrics in lonely places

but vicariously of someone else's lair

Reminders that I chose to tear and blaze

into the trigonometry of companionship

with the moisture of regret beading

scarlet flesh encasement

to a world I couldn't conjure

Anatomy which shows no comparison to a lake

Only my bare legs and virgin hair

I didn't wait for the bus

where sincere love would've driven me

dying not to dwell upon you
