The essence of my life is quiet hilarity. I test the waters even though I know I can't swim. - Jocelyn McSayles
Pioneering the Dark Horse
Disarmed by the gallantry
Your smile, so enraptured me
Please, seam for all perpetuity your lovesome note in mine

Can’t focus, concentrate, breathe, deal. My hands are likened to that of the dead, or dying, always cold, as if my body too has recognized that life is now impossible for me. I uhm…
It’s difficult to remember things, even things that are supposed to be important… those faces, I’m supposed to know those people but, I don’t care enough to even know myself, or what day of the week this is. I can’t think, not of anything but the purpose, the reason behind my despondency: my love isn’t here.
Always alone, rejected, quiet.
Crookedly, I wrote upon my past, a bitter and hurt notion
That cried the two-part, too-long forgotten
Wail of unrequited love
A halfway trust, encroached upon by a doubt so fierce
It near-defeated a faith
Of a girl, a lady, young, doe-eyed
Misguided, and lied to and from by a so
Embittered casket of bubbling up thoughts of a surface
Buried deep in a wary restriction, fearless and forlorn
Until a hope, a truth has dawned

Wowed by the prospective
Feel of your lips, the sweetness
Of kisses between
Only ever grasping
As much before first notice of a strange sensation
Overwhelmed by the rapid beat, beating
Commanding my senses
Emotions so fleetin
And, I'm in love
Never do I want to lose your touch

Clair & Cliff II
Hey you,
I thought I wed this handsome,
Young man... a doctor
And I was right
The father of my five babies
Maybe we're in love
Blessed under the sun of a thousand days.
Beauty? Excuse me but,
Are we experiencing a deluge,
Drenched by our ponderous,
pouring love?
Where does the beauty lie?
In my eyes?
In our hearts
Blossomed from the first arch of our romance
Into the celestial orbits
That's it, yes
I thought you might be the tether for me
Tying me to the earth dear.
You see, I never presumed to dream that I'd find such wonder in a man
Listen to these tunes
Watch the sway of my hips
Close your eyes, remember the
Taste of my kiss
The feel of my hands
When you hold me like this
How strong we both stand in this, sometimes twisted and dark society. I believe we conquered anxiety with our restless romance.
I fell for you, upon first sight
You whisked me away that soft jazz night
In winter
And I loved you, forevermore
My heart's closed its door to anyone but you
Cliff, dear,
I cannot fathom how
You would not know my appreciation for you
My husband, my protector, my lover so true
The children and I aren't us without you. Te amo
The tenderness with which we dance in this life (giggles)
Full of lyricism and instrumental highs Your lovesome voice sets me dreaming
I sigh Ten years from this day, the children away
Because I am waltzing with your person Just you and I through the light of God's way
Cliff, I can't breathe. Hold me in your arms through the coming return
I'd demonstrate the needed passion state of my heart, of the King
But for the crowd Escort me into the essence of being
perhaps I could say this out loud In love
