Mistress...

Charles Johnson

I wanna touch your heart.
I want you to feel mine beating.
Can I have a minute of your time.
Because my heart is bleeding.

You have left a hole in my soul.
Up close you can see me fading.
You weren't supposed to go.
Now life and death are both trading.

I loved you with all that I had.
As irony twists it was your fatal kiss
that assists death's grab.
More hurt than mad, it's hard for
me to escape this terrible drab.
May I talk to you? Only for a
moment. Yes you miss....

I wonder, how you could
ever do this? I am forced
to walk so empty and alone.
But not you mistress.
You comfortably exist inside of a
realm clearly filled with dark abyss.

Charles Johnson

Biographically I would say that this is the place where I share about me.Re veered as a someone with morals, values,and positive energy, inspiration, and responsibilities.My possibilities can't possibly be limited to nothing less than exquisite.Welcome to my page, and I'm glad you stopped to visit. A wizard with words, nouns and verbs, sometimes my proverbs are superb like a nerds. Nope let's kick that one to the curb...I use metaphors and similes by my lonesome or in assemblies if this is where you wish to find me anonymously.Now that you know just a little bit about myself....I say welcome to you once again, and please enjoy yourself:-) more…
