• The Blue Pool
    A young man sipped limoncello, in a bar in the village square,
    He was lonely and heartbroken, you would often find him there,
    His heart was filled with sorrow, he felt twisted and torn inside,
    When a waitress in a black dress, came and whispered as he cried,
    ‘Do you know there’s a blue pool, born out of the mountain str…Read More

    • While I fancy myself a romantic, I think I will avoid this Blue Pool. I have loved a few times and may never love again, but I think I do not want to play the fool.

    Real Time

    All my words sound like a prayerAll your whispers sound like confessionThough my instinct says bewareStill what lingers takes possessionI can't give you all the blameI can't give you all the yearningThough my senses dull the flameStill I can't...

    • Powerfully penned, Brandon. Excellent write my friend. There is a longing in the words of this one. Nicely done.

    • There’s a sense of almost but not quite saying. A dance around the edges of something. Damian is right. There is a longing ringing through this one.

      • I like both yours and Damian’s observations. I was playing with words with a longing vibe that day. I am glad you both can see that. Thank you for reading.

    • Hey Brandon!

      There is longing but also a smidge of courage.
      Letting someone watch you in real time falling is no joke.
      Being vulnerable when it comes to longing isn’t easy.
      Takes courage to put yourself out there.
      I also enjoyed all the rhyming too.
      It’s got meter and rhythm. Very nicely done!

    • hello dearest Brandon this is deep I understand the need to fulfill your fantasies in real time this is great ❤️
