Analysis of Enjoy the journey

Holly Flame Maxey 1976 (baltimore)



Sitting in my night-time escape pod

I am dreaming of your symbolic embrace

As I gaze into the portal of your soul  

That usually ends up  

In the deepest part of my heart, mind, and soul

I am still entranced my beloved

I am still in anticipation with our every meeting

Time exists and does not exist  

When our paths do not cross in any way

I envision you all day  

And I fantasize you are with me

All hours of the night  

The night is the hottest part of the day

When I envision you near  

Keep me in anticipation  

I will enjoy this time

I know the wait time  

Will only make the destination sweeter

In any case, I never want to reach the destination  

I am enjoying this journey with you
