Proposal
By Peter Scott
Taken by urge
I sit
Days fly by
Years revolve
All in a matter
Twelve seconds are absolved
Personalized not a one
Yet how may I decline
You are in my heart
You are in my mind
An essence hits
One for each sun's
Glorious departure
The message hits
A bell rings out
Back through mind
Surges course
Linked
Worthless trees
Never once fell
Now I see
Tiles chipped
Bark gone
Power
Glorious, splendid, remarkable
Mundane and in view
You are the one
A hand I never had
Complete we may make
Soon but not now
Strings down a path
intertwined
Keen for another
Irony not hold
A creeping fly forth
Perishing
Life sustained
Verging back with a
Pair of proud little dots
Looking, staring
Holding you in my arms
Far and near
One beating for two
Pencil over ink
Black as that deep slumber
Tracing
Every curve
Every line
Understanding you may not
Simply know...
Know me
By knowing you
Traced through time
Hollow words resound
So true
Proclaimed
The only place that matters
It goes łthump˛
Bells silenced with rage
Arms wrapped protectively
Caught in our own sphere
Bright, glowing
I say the words
Worthless to them
Brilliant to you
bound by our marriage
A holy bond is not needed
Seeing through your eyes
We are forever one
Should you really love me?
I best only guess
Do I love you?
After tonight
We are one
No longer two.
