From Anchorage to Zebulon: In Search of Missed Connections
Fall in Love by Dhilung Kirat
the noise
that the heart makes
when it falls out of love
how peaceful
most calming
finally –
silence
when love finally
falls out of
the noise
that most calming silence
how it makes the heart
peaceful
… “as I climbed the stairs, I heard him say
I hope you fall
in love
and as I stepped into the sunlight
I realized I was laughing
and I was
light”

My Favorite Buildings by Thomas Hawk
my sister recited a poem as if
it was a list of buildings
that no longer exist
a list of buildings, my sister
no longer exist
a poem recited as if
that was it
It’s a Fine Romance
It’s a fine romance
A Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers
Romance
It’s a Frank Sinatra romance
The way you look tonite
“In other word’s”
It’s a sinister romance
You look dapper
You look smashing
You look precariously
Well-balanced, my sweet Love.
As the Ace of Spades blasts
Through Lemme’s Motorhead Mouth
Romance is more than just a game
For two lover’s
Lost in paradise
Romance is the shuffle
While standing in cue
At the Capital
Plastered inside
With shots of hidden shyness
Romance is the journey to Hell
Holding hands together.
As the King of rock n roll
Elvis Presley sings
Love me tender.
It’s a fine romance
As the Cure blares
“I will always love you”
A double shot of romance
“Tainted Love”
And then it dawns upon you
As you try not to be seen staring
At the two incredibly hott
Brunette’s chatting up their storm
She smiles with gracious charm
Her friend winks and a giggle follows
Time to escape
The James Dean way
A firey crash
Lite up the blue skies
Soul music reigns supreme
The most beautiful voice
The queen Aretha Franklin
And that’s what I need right about now.
“A natural woman”
A natural romance
A natural woman’s romance
As the opening of my heart drowns
From the flames of desire
Oh I’m lost again……
The endless dreams of all these
Parkdale girls…..
Time to get that mermaid tattoo on my hip coloured in….
End it with sum Stevie Wonder’s
Rendition
I can’t take my eye’s off of you
I love you baby
Let me love you…………..
Oh I’m lost again……
Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers
Holding hands together While standing in cue
Well-balanced
Romance is the shuffle
The way you look tonite, Frank Sinatra
You look dapper You look smashing
Plastered inside
Romance is more than just a game
Lemme’s Motorhead Mouth
I can’t take my eyes off of you,
You look precariously Lost in paradise
Let me love you………….. It’s a fine romance
Elvis Presley sings
The James Dean way
Time to escape A fiery crash
It’s a sinister romance
the Cure blares
“I will always love you”
And then it dawns upon you
Romance is the journey to Hell
Aretha Franklin with sum Stevie Wonder
Lite up the blue skies
As the opening of my heart drowns
A double shot of romance
It’s a romance,
And that’s what I need right about now.
The endless dreams of all these
Europe Lips by enki22
Never, ever, give up,
but when a lover calms
your dreams with their lips,
it’s okay to give in a little.
-Bison Jack
give up your lips
it’s okay
a little calms but to
give in when a lover dreams with their ever,
Never
October Shadows by Dayna Bateman
The lines across your body
Repeating phrases of limitless
Passion and
I could only think of you
When he held my chin up I
Was defeated and confused
It’s only
Sunday and I’ll never know
The difference between a poem
A song, a story, and
A metaphor
I never claimed to be
Anything but in love with you
And the breath between two
Stanzas
Of you making love to me
I never claimed to be Sunday and I’ll never know of you making love to me. I could only think of you.
Stanzas: It’s only passion and a metaphor.
