  poems for a new tomorrow

take me

take me to the highest heights

I’ve never been before

take me there please quickly

before I’m out your door

stab me, kill me, drag me down

to depths I’ve never known

there’s only one condition - 

that you’ll always bring me home

throw me all your curve balls

and know that I won’t miss

cause that special other half

has again filled my life with bliss

try as you may to forget me

but don’t forget your past

for the good and bad are intermixed

and both need to be to last

for life without its obstacles

could roll merrily along

without one ever wondering

if the other would come back home

but let us learn from those empty times

when those outstretched arms were missed

and not forsake each other

and let’s seal this with a kiss!
