Inconsequential Wonderings

Neville

Inconsequential Wonderings

 

Do you remember

the last time

you danced for him ..

He told me

you were naked and

glowed ..

Can you remember

the last time

you fought with him ..

Well, he

swore he could hear

the roar

of the sea, in the shell

of your ear,

as you did then, beat up

on him ..

And do you ever recall

the last time

you dined with him ..

I note he

chewed fast while you

invariably

tend to swallow deep

and so

deliciously slow ..

Well today,

yet again, I find myself

wondering

if you still have the taste

of him on

the tip of your tongue ..

Because

for some reason, or other

I still do

occasionally question

how far you

did go with your love

for him ..

That is, before you gave

a thought to

maybe first letting me go ..

      Thanks Fay, this is one of them old uns I found while poking around in the attic ... x

    • Bella Shepard

      This one touches deeply. Are there truly degrees of love, a scale that measures it's depth? I think the human heart can only be truly quantified by the person within whom it beats. So poignantly written my dear friend!

      • Neville



        I love the deepness of your perusal dear Bella & the consequent questions that arise from it .. I think and hope you are write .. I sincerely hope that you are ........... Neville

        An unanswered question if ever there was one, Nev. Close intimate human relationships are always unfinished, aren't they?

        • Neville



          I not only concur Dave in its entirety, I also thank you too for reading between the lines & seeing where I am coming from ... Neville
