The gust of wind
and the falling rain.
Another day in paradise.
The hateful twin
and the twisted pain.
This thunder never strikes twice.
A hidden kiss
a techno-secret,
doing things we'd said we'd not.
A near miss
and though we'd keep it,
another episode best forgot.
The stroke of hair
and a hand on heart.
a peaceful moments bliss.
There's nothing here,
no forks to part,
if only time would stop at this.
When sleep would come,
a blanket soft,
fingers intertwined.
There's only one so deeply lost,
left for you to find.
Another day in paradise.
A peaceful moments bliss,
this feeling only comes twice,
let's not leave it at this.
Another night in told restriction,
spending it apart,
there's no cure for this addiction,
we don't know the ways of the heart.
The fist time
the sun was high,
spent the hours just you and me.
Smile kind,
how I could fly,
close to you's where birds could be.
The flowers gone
the years turned over,
sending me to sleep.
You are my only one
I thought I told ya,
it's locked in me heart for keeps.
Another day in paradise.
A peaceful moments bliss,
this feeling only comes twice,
let's not leave it at this.
Another night in told restriction,
spending it apart,
there's no cure for this addiction,
we don't know the ways of the heart.

Hey thanks for the comment, I like the raw emotion in your poem here, "There's no cure for this addiction" I can tell you first hand that I know precisely what you mean with this.

First off, i'm guessing the song is that Phil Colins-Another Day in Paradise? seems most likely it is. Most of the poem here seems to intertwine with that song beautifully...so I know i'm right Shell =D (if i'm wrong...bugger).
This is obviously about someone you hold very close to your heart...not Paul then! jokes, i'm guessing it's mostly about your other half, Mr.Saele.
I could be wrong though...I am a man after all and we usually get these things wrong wrong wrong.
I think I have this poem sussed, but I will PM you instead of posting here what I think it is...or talk to you in school about it.
Good write, best of luck in the contest.
