David DeSantis - A New Date

Beautiful Blue Eyes,
And a well worn dress

I have not felt this feeling
In many years.

So many wasted nights,
chasing tails
And spinning quarters.
Emptying bottles,
And filling a gap.

A gap that she set high.

And now,
Beautiful Blue eyes
And a heart-sleeve smile.

I have not felt this feeling
In many years.

Just when the bottom
Had burst
And my feet
remained
trapped
by weights
too heavy to bear.
My imagination depressed
By devil worn concepts
and lingering tans,
make-up smiles,
and fake purse highs,

Beautiful blue eyes,
and a soul to match.
Guitar voice lips,
And piano hands.

I have not felt this feeling
In many years.
