Daze 28
The Words
The words I heard from your mouth
Worked their way through my mind
My heart they captivated and tied
Then they slowly snuck inside
Slowly to me, slowly to mind, it all blind
What enchantments that were cast, arise
As they intertwined your thoughts and mine
The shine of a new light, my mind will find
The words insist and through all persist
Building and constructing an image by design
A link to the heart through the mind
The false image is cast in light not divine
But unseen it went until I saw you as mine
All that arose to defy this lie
Inflicted no harm unto this blind line
We felt a love and thought it divine
Then it snapped from your heart
But it stayed stuck to mine
Left me confused and sad
And I felt I could die.
