Cage Striped Heart
My world’s so far away
Living in a parallel home
I’m hoping you’ll stay
Always on my asylum mind
How you move me even when
We’re so far apart
Locked down in a different town
Penitentiary art
Penitentiary art
Wondering where you are
And what you’re doing
Strumming bars on
My Cage Striped Heart
Phasing through concrete
Playing my heart out
Knowing you’ll hear me
Cause no one else sounds like me
I’ve got nothing but time
But I don’t want to wait
Your voice unlocks my
Paradise steel gate
Free of hate and liars
Behind razor barbed wire
Everything was so still
There was nothing until
Penitentiary art
Penitentiary art
Movement into music
Strumming bars on
My Cage Striped Heart
Wondering where you are
Phasing across the ocean
Contemplation into motion
Playing my cage striped heart
Like a harp, knowing you’ll hear me
Living in a parallel home
I’m hoping you’ll stay
Always on my asylum mind
How you move me even when
We’re so far apart
Locked down in a different town
Penitentiary art

Wondering where you are

Playing my heart out
Knowing you’ll hear me
Cause no one else sounds like me
I’ve got nothing but time
But I don’t want to wait
Your voice unlocks my
Paradise steel gate
Free of hate and liars
Behind razor barbed wire
Everything was so still
There was nothing until

Contemplation into motion
Playing my cage striped heart

Author's Note
I had a great Thanksgiving break:) Went to see the ocean, shopped a little and
decorated a Christmas Tree at Mark's place.
I haven't written any lyrics in a while.
Thought I'd give it a try.
Hope you enjoy:)

This sure plays like a harp... well, it reads like one anyway, Adelphina. Here's another prison-of-sorts music link in a kinda romantic way. Your 'Cage Striped Heart' poem reminded me of it. https://youtu.be/_W2jONIjrM0

Hi Tim!
Thank you so much:)
I was listening to this song.
d4dv - Romantic Homicide
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKL3TceSxvk
Just the opening. It sounds so infinite. I changed the
subject matter since it's about how love dies. LOL
The guitar kept playing over and over in my head so
I used it to write these lyrics. hahah
Glad to see you stopping by!
It's always nice to hear from you:)

Hi PS
Thanks for that. I just kept hearing the chorus in my head.
Had to write it down before it flowed away:)
Glad I caught it!
Thanks for the hat nod amigo!

The longing is felt in every clever line. Hopefully you'll see him again soon

Hi C,
Thanks for your snaps on my lines. I always try to make it
interesting and different:)
I talk to him all the time.
We're never too far apart even miles away:)

Absence does one of two things: it extinguishes the weak and inflames the strong. I do believe you are the latter. Enjoyed the lyrics very much and wishing you continued strength on love's journey.

Hi Ahavati:)
Thank you so much for the encouraging comment. It made me
smile and sit up a little straighter while typing this reply:)
He's so attentive and sweet. It was a wonderful trip.
Thanks for the best wishes and your snaps on my lyrics.
Means the world.

Why is it that a plane descending is so uplifting, and then a plane ascending leaves me downtrodden? Because you're on it.
I miss you too.
We have what's important in common, because we're DUPlicates!
This is a beautiful write, my love. I feel it, big-time. The cleverness within the sense of longing is not enough to hide the feelings. Because we're coping the same.
Every day with you is a holiday. The waits are always worth it.

Hey Big Sexy!!!!!
OMG!!
DUPlicates is brilliant. hahaha
I'll be back before you know it and don't roll your eyes at that.
It will be soon. The New Year is coming and I'm looking forward to it.
Hang in there big guy:)
Just like me!
Yes, It feels like I'm in lockdown cause I can't hug you
when I want;(
But soon I will - we both have something to look forward to!!
I always get that excited feeling in the shuttle to you at the airport.
It feels like a mini subway. hahaha
It's exhilarating!
Smooches!!

The distance is deeply felt in this one. The together moments must be amazing to inspire such beautiful missing you poetry. Hopefully you won't be apart too long!

Hi Willow!!
We do live far apart but when we see each other it's like no time
has passed. We pick up right where we left off.
But when we are apart - I do miss him:)
He's my woosah.
All good things come in time - gotta remember that when it gets
frustrating.

You know lots of people think that long distance relationships aren't cool or are destined to fail. We can call this a lie as big as the sun overhead. We know several people whose relationship started long distance, now either their better half lives here or they have moved there. We have people at work that are in long distance relations or they have moved closer. The point is to take your times and build that grain into a pearl. Distance really is nothing but space and time, and both can be overcome with that special love and trust. We now possess the ability to communicate all over space and time, tight piece Lady

Hey Meme:)
Thanks for the encouraging words amigo:)
It's not easy but we make it work. The future is a great
place to focus my energy and writing. Makes time pass
easier.
My cousin met her husband online. They are still together to this
day. You just gotta be willing to put yourself out there and take a chance,
thanks for stopping by!!
