Almost lovers.. New poetry Monday.

Almost lovers..

1. Almost lovers, we tried to be. We had youth and the sweet wine. We were Doc Holliday and dear Kate. Untamed and so damn brave. Somewhere in time. Love wasn’t so sweet and we were not brave no-more. We befriended death.

2- Almost lovers, we were once. Youth was our whiskey and sex was our ambrosia. We wanted to use up life till we could not no-more. We sang, we danced and we traveled. Once we needed more. Now we accept silence. Damn world stole our laughter, damn world stole our passion. I left you dear Daniela with few words. Tonight I tell the rising moon. I still remember the crazy days and I prayed for one more night with her, I pray for more kisses.

3- We were almost lovers. We made promises of forever and we gave each other. Everything we had to give. We didn’t question our needs and we tried to find utopia in the midnight hours. We didn’t know. Youth is the sweetest wine. And we should of locked the doors, we should of kept the world at-bay. We didn’t know. Love demand great payment. And.
