Cry of Love
Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)
There is little confusion
in your world
as it revolves
beyond your life illusions
it’s like sand on the beach
kissing each wave in passing
Ask the tree why it branches
And with the presence
of the wind
Why it’s leaves
dance…
Ask me why
i cry for your love
What do soldiers
live and die for
With your love…
i am
continuously in heat
You give me sweet relief
as i release…
From my heart and mind
all its hurt and pain
As i contemplate my love for you
as
Your love scent
lingers in my brain…
