God's Gifts Are Never Late
Where is fantasia? It is a dead issue, I am afraid.
There are to many charletans, I'm ill of the games that are being played.
Each mischievous belle, plans a plot to execute.
Where is the compromise, it is grounds for dispute.
"Oh", she says, "I must make him pay for the mistakes of my past."
Of course, my heart is broken, it wasn't meant to last.
Does she laugh with revenge, that her heart is spitefully smothered?
Shall I wish for a steady love, to see that my affections are mothered?
I doubt, for she has shown her face and laughed with greed.
My arms reach to hold her, but she is blinded by her own need.
She possesses power over my fragile, juvenile heart.
The cunning of her deceitful breath, steals my kiss and wishes to depart.
Oh, that hateful jest, angers me enough to kill!
My demeanor remains composed and breaks my heart, enough to will.
I move on, seeing only the beauty which awaits my embrace.
She is always in my dreams, but I can't taste her kiss or see her face.
I toss a coin in the fountain of fate, desiring the love I earn.
The ripples of karma's water tear away my soul, causing the pain to burn.
It does subside at times, as I compose the tune of a mature man.
The love of a woman is welcomed, but her moral foundation must stand.
Until then, my dreams will pattern Venus across many stars.
Hopefully, those stars will unite someday, to heal my lonely scars.
Sometimes, I cry, but I must laugh in the face of fate.
I must not be broken, I must stay strong, because God's gifts are never late.
