Purple Heart

This is about a dove both old & new whom I loved through & through She's coming through like a wave in tidal form that can only be surfed from 5 to 2 She lives only in rooms I've tucked away within a heart that's gone away Memories spin the block night & day out of control like thoughts gone astray Weak thinking about her touch for many days until it came to an end like Saturday She brought color to my vision in many ways until shade made the optics go away I saw clearly from the day she looked away hiding her eyes in a shy seductive way We weren't ready for the way it made us feel when we took that hit from Cupids stray Still connected like the net that reeled us in so we'll never be apart or separate I'm seeing visions of a web of sticky things that our passion was meant to eviscerate These words are meant to commemorate a flame that was ignited long ago Eye to eye we meet in unspoken tones but listen to this song with loving notes I conduct this symphony with closed eyes thinking of her like a dream of past times Ever present I can remember those past times as if they are here in real time This is an ode that ages like fine wine & never gets old like immortal bodies We're intoxicated on higher levels in real time that will never be sobered by anybody
