Fleeting
Robert Scott
22 May, 2016 05:23 AMWho can say? Come now and please do tell Step up here and state your case To me and all those clamoring throughout the age Where has it gone? Will it ever return? This force that lays waste To all the thinkers,foolish,heartsick Believing, dreaming, searching for the nectar Desperate to slake the dry lips that hang so gaunt. So parched. It touches all without remorse It makes them addicts,quivering foaming with but one taste The mysteries of Apothecary...mere child's play. Ecstasy distress bliss agony Sawing asunder all those who foolishly wait Yearning for another drop. "Please. Surely this must be the day I will have what I cannot begin to hate" With futile attempts to breech the fortress that she hides behind The Shepherd and the King Have spilled their souls assaulting the gate that shields these fools from their quest. Why won't you care? Why won't you come? It seems you've no regard You drew me in,you caressed my soul Oh stay with me! I've only seen what others have what others share A fleeting glimpse this heart has seen The flakes of April are better shielded Than what is here for me Dear God!I've felt this mystery force You've given from the start,this is no game to play I damn you now I've tasted it Why? Why won't you let it stay? So long ago your hand in mine The suns last rays gleaming in your eyes Please return to me my Dutch surprise Where are you now? I fear the news Far from your heart I am This nectar I have tasted Has made me dead again
