Takes My Breath Away

On March 18, 2022March 24, 2022 By Trilby YatesIn Romantic

The Dead Poet rating "A" makes my heart sing And a photo is like capturing a moment in time Fireflies in a jar, blowing dandelions into the wind with a wish Hanging on like a trapeze artist - grace and daring A sliver of time, a glance, a kiss - your hand holding mineWe walk …

Cliff Walk Affair

On February 16, 2022March 1, 2022 By Trilby YatesIn Romantic

Two steps off, four steps back; I still can't make my way beyond the fogA few steps off, a couple steps back; it's a cliff walk, a leap of faith jumpMoving forward, double back; your love has been like a Magic 8 ballSliding forward, slipping back; online foot print has a magnetic pushTwo steps your …

Ghosting

On May 16, 2019May 16, 2019 By Trilby YatesIn Beat Generation / Wise Ass, Romantic

I’ve got nothing. Nothing. Energy high flying buzz off. Don't dare shake a stick at a creative wise-ass. Believe it to be true, says so on my business card - "wise-ass" There are times when the space between a fine line, And a loose cannon are as simple as the abyss That falls amidst a …

Dating Site Pause

On February 16, 2019February 16, 2019 By Trilby YatesIn Beat Generation / Wise Ass, Perceptions, Romantic

Drop down distance 50 mile radius I remain geographically undesirable Age range is a throwback Reminiscent of my youth Always dated older men I’m sure Freud would have a field day Challenging whose fault I am But now I’ve tightened the circle Fear based sense of loss I couldn’t bear again Nothing is a sure …

Mr. Who Knows Who

On August 25, 2016 By Trilby YatesIn Beat Generation / Wise Ass, Romantic

All that crazy anticipation build up and worry as if yesterday was a blank page And all the steps taken have somehow been washed away like footsteps in the sand - how cliche! I remember laughing about all those old sayings one night during a brief love affair he filled my glass of wine up …

Inconsequential Meeting

On August 23, 2016 By Trilby YatesIn Romantic

Had a dream about you last night; seems since we had our inconsequential meeting - inconsequential feels so removed and so cold and my head hurts when I think and I'm starting to feel too old to be a player in the dating game ... anyway Confirmation washes over me like the cold waters of …

Un-reciprocated Possibilities

On June 5, 2016 By Trilby YatesIn Musically Reclined, Perceptions, Romantic

Words dripping from my lips mid sentence lapse of judgment makes no sense to let them fall but I'm feeling empty headed And I can't get beyond my own thoughts and on a better day I would know it's not about you at all... - this is just about me ... now I'm stumbling around …

Taxi Driver

On June 2, 2015June 24, 2016 By Trilby YatesIn Beat Generation / Wise AssLeave a comment

What to say when a question is posed Like a bull in a China shop… The only answer lay dumbfound-ed on the tongue of an exiled wise-ass “So, uh what about you, dating yet or uh, anything…?” That is how the question game begins Twisting in the wind via self-preservation, defensiveness… and A touch of …
