Top to Bottom

Both sides of the day

play heavily in their minds.

What started out as ordinary

has quickly turned to divine.

Sharp tasting foods make life bitter,

as equally are the sweet sugary things

these are their binding agents

words mixed with a hint of desire

starting a want that’s hard to extinguish.

If not by love, then where shall I look?

I know how easy it is to get lost

don’t bother trying to find it in a book,

the author has yet to start writing.

Wait here patiently under the sun

time will pass seemingly unnoticed

blessed by all the treasured looks

the passerby’s with all their attention

I wonder when time will start anew.

Who will be the first to decipher

the true and exact meaning of this poem.
