Look away

Aa Harvey

Look away

 

 

Transmission overload;

Can’t seem to figure out my mind.

I’m feeling home alone in time,

Too late to find a bride.

 

 

I have slept a thousand years;

No princesses kiss to change my heart and wake me up.

I have shed a thousand tears;

I filled the room with my philosophical water-ducts.

 

 

I swam like a duck into the sky,

Living for all that is ahead.

Communication; translate lies to truth,

Misinterpret every word I have said.

Here, take my dictionary.

It’s all made up with empathy.

I wrote love on every page,

To say the word I never get to say.

 

 

I took another look at all the mistakes I have made,

But they are carved in stone. No memory I can erase.

Pick up another love, I’ll never write your name into my book.

You will be a forgotten one; or you will be the only one…trust.

 

 

Open heart did for me;

I let me feelings float away.

I write it down for you to see

And then I make sure you always look away.

 

 

You want an honest man;

The truth would tear your hope apart.

Inside my life,

There is only space for one heart.

Fill our heart with endless wonder.

  • Fay Slimm.

    The wonder of love wrapped in expressive reflections. Good read A.A.

    • Aa Harvey

      Thank you.
      That's the wonder of love.

      "When no-one else can understand me,
      When everything I do is wrong,
      You give me hope and consolation,
      You give me strength to carry on
      And you're always there,
      To lend a hand,
      In everything I do...

      That's the wonder,
      The wonder of you."

      Great write

        "I’m floating down a river...

        Further down the river...

        Floating down a river named emotion...

        Further down the river...

        I’m building an antenna.
        Transmissions will be sent,
        When I am through...

        Maybe we can meet again,
        Further down the river..."

        • Tony36

          Welcome, I hope we can meet again further down the river. I like reading your stuff

        • FredPeyer

          Aa, it's never too late to find a bride!
          Well penned, I like it!

          • Aa Harvey

            Thanx.

            (A message to my future self...)


            "Old man look at my life,
            I'm a lot like you were.
            Old man look at my life,
            I'm a lot like you were...

            Live alone in a paradise,
            That makes me think of two.
            Love lost, such a cost,
            Give me things that don't get lost...

            Old man take a look at my life,
            I'm a lot like you!
            I need someone to love me,
            The whole day through.
            One look in my eyes
            And you can tell that's true..."

          • myself and me

            "I have slept a thousand years;
            No princesses kiss to change my heart and wake me up."
            Since you have slept for so long, why mind to wait a little bit longer. Once the right princess appear, you will wake up without kiss.
            Just take another nap. Your true love will come.
            Great writing.

            • Aa Harvey

              I have already been asleep long enough.
              I try to believe that I will find true love one day, so it's nice to hear people tell me that I will find my true love...Thank you.

              "I have loved you for a thousand years.
              I'll love you for a thousand more…

              Time stands still.
              Beauty in all she is…

              I have loved you for a thousand years.
              I'll love you for a thousand more
              And all along I believed I would find you.
              Time has brought your heart to me.
              I have loved you for a thousand years.
              I'll love you for a thousand more."
