gypsywoman gypsywomani see you here
i see you there
i see you everywhere
but who are you gypsywoman
but who are you gypsywoman
with sweet words and a pretty smile
your spirit tempts taunts
your spirit tempts taunts
but do i dare
would you could you be
would you could you be
the gentle breeze here today
and gone tomorrow
softly fluttering
softly fluttering
sooth my aching heart
ease my hidden sorrow
* * * * *
a gentle breeze i am not
i am the storm of storms a gale force wind
the tempest fierce
the tempest fierce
the raging tsunami taking with it all defenses
sweeping away washing away
sweeping away washing away
the debris of yesterday
this life transcend
so do you want to know
so do you want to know
to really know the who and what of me
or would you rather just imagine me
or would you rather just imagine me
on the playground of what if
where your heart of stone
where your heart of stone
is safe and sound
from the likes of
me
this wild banshee

And you have done it yet again, sweet Gyps: reached inside my own soul and drawn a portrait of the words unspoken. Imagination or reality, does it really matter when it is imagination for one and reality for the other? But you know this, for we talked privately of it just last night, and Tomorrow, for me, the tale will be told. I shiver, whether in fear or exultation, expectation or anticipation; cold chills or fevered heat? Either/or.....will he know? Will he see? Will he care? Will he understand? Will he respond? I watch the clock. I hear my heart. Tick-tock. Tick. Tock. cj
dear cj! what is reality but one of our homes in imagination - there is oft times a very thin line between the two - the imagination of one and the reality of the other - and i think it matters not which or if, even - all that matters is "is" - i've not doubt that he will know and care and understand with or without words spoken - there are many things that are said only with the eyes and the heart - and those are the important things!
Wild banshee! Just how I imagine you, Leo.
me, too, dear lady, me, too! the wild banshee! thank you!
