this pain: courtesy of a gentleman
understand that longing
recorded words ringing in finger tips
sweet text that's scrawled
whispers of wants and needs
those broken cars that wouldn't get us there
damned to love in poorness
conquest of century battles
worthy actions to steal a girl's heart
read, those words alone enough to make one moan
conquer asphalt detours and
traffic light hells to get to me
slay midevil dragon fears
with thoughts of me in your bed
your prize for all your desolate dreams
my knight in shining armor
ranked highly above the rest of your kind
but do i set the steaks to high
wonderful man. tender with openness
in both of us strife beyond our years
together baggage handled with care
for we know how it feels, that hurt from others
and longing, bittersweet
living in this pain that only a gentleman could bring
Honorable mention
Adding your comment:
nice. I'll get right on that!
