THE DREAMS OF A LONELY HEART

new writer. need some feed back

bright like the light of dawn
your face shown through the
cloud of smoke at the end of the bar

my heart was racing
and pounding out of my chest
as the butterflies threw a party
in my stomach

with each step closer my
nerves grew limp
the floor became tar
under my feet

then we embraced
your arms in mine
and vice versa
soul to soul
we morphed into one

in your eyes i could see
peace for this tormented heart
our lips about to interlock
brrring!, brrring!, brrring!

(the clock reads 7:30 am)
i answer the phone
its my mother
she wants to know if I’ve
found love yet
