The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

I see you standing there

With a grin upon your face

and flowers in your hair

Sometimes I wish I was there

In that special place

The place where you care...(stretched out)

 

Take me away to a better place

Where I've never fallen from your grace

Take me there, take me away

Don't leave me behind in your wake

 

The tragic garden of love and hate

I walk the path betwixt light

And the world you desecrate

You are the reason, you are the fate

But you're a deadly poison

The mongoose to my snake...(stretched out)

 

Take me there, to that special land

Where you'll be there to take my hand

Take me away, take me oh so far

To the land deep inside your heart

 

(guitar fill, with vocal 'Bah, ba-bah' stuff going on)

 

Nothing you say can cure my disease

The flowers on your lips

Will never give me a rest or ease

So I turn and walk away from my fate

My heart's been torn

And I don't need to recriminate

 

Let me fly with you, to that other place

I want to be with so bad it makes me ache

Let's go away, and never come again

I don't want for us to just be friends

 

Take me there never to return

I want to love you so bad

But I don't want to burn

It's so hard to fix things, why do I try?

I love you much, love

But I hate to cry...

 

 

====================

For my first poem at the new site, I feel rather proud, this feels really good to me. I mean, I haven't been writing very well lately, but this actually has a song line to it before I started it...I was wandering around town, and this just came fairly unbidden to me - and then I went home and wrote it down. Tell me what you think, k?
