chasing Blackberry
Why don't you ring?
::
Love at first sight. Or so it seemed.
Perhaps I was blind, though,
seeing only what I wanted to see.
Purple Rain despite its (R) rating.
Amadeus plus your guitar.
Sipping Cappuccino from my spoon,
How could I?
Late night Limelights of Danceteria and Palladium
Barely kissing to consummate
A Midnight Summer's Dream?
Oh but, don't get heavy.
::
Heavy price I paid
left for dead
Fifth Floor Bayonne.
Haldol spritzers minus Cogentin
leaving both arms paralyzed, hanging lifeless.
All the while refusing electric shocks, almost daily.
Not one ring! Not one!
Cuckoo?
I don't know.
::
Hours passed: Years then.
Lavender hallways leading to Your smile.
Traces of trust transferred there.
An hourglass of time like no other clockwork I'd seen.
Thoughts often perplexed followed
stares of warm embrace,
unapologetic.
You knew.
::
Rewarded Red Cross delinquent
for showing up. For me.
Dedicated and Dependable (DAD), yes ethical.
The best Father Figure I had in all my life.
Sweetheart landing from Paris or London.
Clues of Kisses blown right in front of me.
Our Fifth Year Anniversary
finally grounding my foundation.
Wishing for more than soul buddy:
Rainbow Room. Hanukkah Eve. Imagine.
In all its sexiness no boundaries were ever broken.
My #1 reason for loving New York again,
God or anything else for that matter.
Hustle and Bustle? You.
Not one cancellation! Not one!
I knew.
::
Phone RANG!!!
I love you!
And I love you!
Fifth Floor Manhattan.
Not that parroting barely 'you too'
