Repentant Love

I want to go back
Back to when we used to talk
I'm ready to do anything you want
I want to take long walks
and midnight runs
I want to go back to that time
when you would do anything for my love
Like that time you jumped off a cliff
Just to prove how much you wanted me

I'm ready to cook and clean into your life
I want to go back when you had that look in your eye
and it was real.
when you delighted in every touch and
hardened with just a look.
I want to go back
back to when we used have midnight
rendevouz camping on a windy beach
making love by the fire.

I want that childlike delight in all the
crazy things we did. when you above all else
were my definition of contentment, excitement,
danger, passsion and desire
I want to go back to where your body
was magnetically hooked into mine
and a hug slipped onto us so unoticablly well

I want to go back to those firey passionate
days when you dragged me back
when I was never thought good enough
I told them to fuck off and ran down the stairs
and you came down stairs and told me there
would be nothing left in your life and
and took me by the hand and dragged me back upstairs
and told them like a man
this is the woman I am going to make my wife!

I'm ready to close that bubble around us
and be that way once more. write silly bad
poetry together in the candle light naked
When your lips magnetically drew mine
I'm ready to be anything you want me to be.
I want to go back, back into that perfect lovers
covenant where we were our whole world
I want to go back to where we were, back
before he came along.

It's nice, in a way, when I can see myself in your words. There are doors to our past which will forever stay closed, paths to memories which are grown over and lost in the thicket because of something someone said or did. I enjoyed the flow of this work, thanks!
