lovesong 22

[peter danielsen]

why did you leave me
why did you go
I cry out for love
your absence says: no

I yearn for you baby
from morning to night
the moon is too far
the sun is too bright

My trust in your faith
has put me to shame
they call me a worm
disgraced is my name

My life all alone
is water you spill
the courage like wax
the bones without fill
The gang of the monkey
is circling my hill
the blood of the heart
is out for a kill

I offered an anthem
you wanted a song
the latter so short
the first was too long

I wrote you a poem
you wanted a rule
the latter assuring
the first by the fool

My mouth is so dry
the lion comes close
the hill now is dark
and crushed is the rose

My life all alone
is water you spill
the courage like wax
the bones without fill
The gang of the monkey
is circling my hill
the blood of the heart
is out for a kill

Nice one Peter Danielson. This would make a great piece of music. Can you go no higher? Sure to be a mountain in those parts somewhere.
Have a nice day.
Jim.

My mouth is so dry
the lion comes close
the hill now is dark
and crushed is the rose

I love this verse, and particularly the first two lines of it, Peter.
The image is SO Powerful!
