i wrote again today

i missed you before i ever knew you
i would think about you during the nights when i wasn’t alone
but i was lonely
i'd reach over and feel the body that shared a bed with me
i knew the patterns
the way to move
and where to touch
but my mind was a blank canvas
and you had the brushes
i didn’t know it
but i wanted you to paint me then
and i want you to paint me now
now that i am alone
but not lonely
i am ready for you to fill up my mind
with every colour you imagine
i want to know what you dream about
what your fears are
where your mind takes you when you stare off for just a little too long
i want to hold your hand through the darkness
and be there when the sun peeks through
as though its only purpose is to illuminate my favorite parts of you
and you’ll fill me with sparks
as you always have
i will finally know what it’s like
to be your work of art

Last few words: 
I haven't written in a long time but she makes me want to.

Comments

my women were brilliant
not that it was more
or less then the ordinary
who feel from the hip
walk the walk
that level
they were able to understand
and assist me in the egos lair
which hid me from the emotional
assisinations

bryan ferry..tunes
he did date jaggers model wife
jerri..shes on the cover
and bowie
and then Nick Cave
Iggy pop
jim morrison
etc

or females of the time
nico
patti smith
pj harvey

Bounce although I like that
song...
and other modern

love is a grand thing
a landscape a texture
a place

good descriptors in this
weighty piece
thank U
