Summer’s sweetness lies upon the shores of tomorrow
As today’s bitterness is cast upon the craggy jettison
Left to die is the presence of torment and sorrow
As the only cure is this symbolic medicine
As I stand on this shore now daydreaming
My eyes find their focus on the view
While my heart’s inside screaming
I can’t get my mind off of you

So sweet, sounds like you've been bitten by the love bug
That bug can really bite too! Thank you
It can bite hard can't it!!
A bitter sweet pill of love, lol nothing if not complex. beautiful imagery and your last lines just so painfully real. ❤️
Teddy, thank you. Sometimes we can fall into fantasy or want, so hard, that it can be so overwhelming.
Raw emotions! No sugar coating! You make it so matter of fact at the end! "I can’t get my mind off of you" Nothing more, nothing less!!! Take it as you please...kind of thing! Beautiful!!
sometimes our heads (and hearts) can't turn away. Thank you so much, Liz!
