Shade
I want you to see me
though I'm invisible
a ghost to you
unable to navigate
your labyrinth heart
a maze of corridors
that I get lost in
your tender core
a pyrotechnic of emotion
buried under your steely exterior
slipping sideways
I fantasize about the places you've been
falling into your gritty adventures
a wild life of my own
we would probably combust
we're we ever to crash into each other
knowing I would be burned
by the fire that is you
I shelter in the shade
on your periphery
never in direct sight
dancing in the shadows
i'll continue doing my own thing
though I'm invisible
a ghost to you
unable to navigate
your labyrinth heart
a maze of corridors
that I get lost in
your tender core
a pyrotechnic of emotion
buried under your steely exterior

I fantasize about the places you've been
falling into your gritty adventures
a wild life of my own
we would probably combust
we're we ever to crash into each other
knowing I would be burned

But we would have an understanding of what us was all about. And that would carry the day.

Another enjoyable write from you Brenda.
You always put so much passion into
your scribes.
I'm sure any man who you would allow
the pleasure of your company would
combust from your fire.
Peace and Love... Thomas

This man allows no lass to dance very long in his shadow.
Masterfully composed. You rock!

Where flames bloom, shades hug the periphery. Sounds like someone we could all do with brighten up our days with some burning life.

such raging fire won't last the night
but it gives a brilliant light!

Dancing on the edge of shadows
compelled to take a leap of faith
into the focus of desired peripheral
or plummet further into my own wraith
The almighty question, some envy those that have such an existence to have such a choice, others wish to never have them. Which answer can your heart not live with.
Beautiful write Crim, so provoking
