A beacon seeking the source base
You want him to be a man for you
Shackled by dissection of purpose
You want him battle weary for you
Floored daily by the elevated downs
You want him black and blue for you
Petals and apologies won't suffice
You want him locked insecure for you
Another fault another finger pointed
You ask him to be born again for you
Now it's time to salute and sail away
Sail away to preserve insanity
Sail away to say this is me
Sail away to say...

A Finger For You

Contributed by duff on Thursday, 28th April 2011 @ 05:42:17 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry

You say you want him to die for you
A beacon seeking the source base
You want him to be a man for you
Shackled by dissection of purpose
You want him battle weary for you
Floored daily by the elevated downs
You want him black and blue for you
Petals and apologies won't suffice
You want him locked insecure for you
Another fault another finger pointed
You ask him to be born again for you
Now it's time to salute and sail away
Sail away to preserve insanity
Sail away to say this is me
Sail away to say...

ah the complexities of life! your writing is like a good glass of wine, to be sipped slowly,whilst tasting every different flavour, savoured, leaving those who sup under no illusion that they have just had the best!

Wonderful poetry once more from you Duff, as always the more I delve into your writing the more I discover.

This made me ache for lost things. Lost warriors, lost love, lost innocence.
Love it!
