Love is blind.. Again

The Feeling
By: the iHope Poet

Did it feel like this
when you wrote me then,
when I read your words by paper and pen?
Did it feel like this
when you kissed me slow,
and you said you loved me as you held me close?
Did I think these thoughts,
Did I hope these hopes,
Did I dream these dreams?
Was I just as close?

Am I blinded again,
by that thing called love:
Not real, not true, but warm enough?

Did I feel like this,
now that he is here,
and you've left me hanging, so I'm stuck in fear -
Is this how it felt to be with you,
Or do I finally have it right, is this something new?
Well, he kisses me slow, in a different way.
And he holds me close, even from far away.
Now I'm thinking these thoughts,
I hope these hopes --
I dream these dreams,
but am I just as close?

Am I really falling
off the same burnt bridge?
Is he just another you, from when I felt it then?

Did it feel like this
when you touched my hand,
when you pulled my heart and you changed my plans?
Did I feel like this
now that he's my date,
and my whole world's never gonna be the same?
Did I think these thoughts,
did I hope these hopes,
did I dream these dreams,
was I just as close?

Cuz I loved you then,
but now I have him.
Is the feeling real now, or am I blind again?

Achy

Just a Drizzle
By: the iHope Poet

Our time has past
and too late
I'm forgetting to keep breathing.

Darling, you kept my heart beating
all those years;
behind us now.

Mem'ries burn
as tears flood,
and words get a little achy.

But Darling, I'll keep saving
just a drizzle
of our love.
