Warmth Is A Place I Will Assume

By the time, my heart has weighed what you have asked me
I will have kneeled upon the blades of life that bloom
To join what I have missed in all of my wanting
While your eyes watch my every move
Warmth is a place I will assume

All is plain in these lands I enter where I stand tall and strong
Where you are only a dream that cries itself to sleep
I can hear you lose your way, shiver in the cold
Yet, through all those tears left to spare
No memories will I ever keep

While you slumber, I write this poem and my heart becomes
One which stands in fame with no shame or fear
Of dancing outside that which you ask me
Even when the ground I walk upon
Fills my shoes with tears

By the time, my heart has weighed what you have asked me
My words will have already written home triumphantly
Pure love will ring out in all the lands you enter
While your eyes watch my every move
Inside the memories you see

Good luck.............

Dreams again, they have much to answer for; they're too often to be bathed in, so often to be run from. Life watched -disregarded, life watched - applauded; there's a time when decisions need to be made.
' .. While your eyes watch my every move ~ Inside the memories you see .. ' those two lines say almost more than they should - but, must.

A superlatively crafted poem, Neva .. even more, its meaning stays in the mind ..

Some interesting pieces in this and its left me wondering is there more below this that isnt being said??

Apart from that excellent write agin

[Dream Weaver]

This to me was extremely sad.
with it’s many metaphors twisting
and contorting to avoid the ponder
what could be or never will be.
Does warmth prevail? A very
moving write.

The path of this poem leads to many different directions and without fear the reader is able to travel them all with no worries of getting lost and the writer no fear of the message not being driven home, perfectly executed

This has so many meanings, that's why you told us good luck lol. But it is clear that the main message is the warmth is your comfort where you remain strong even in the midst of tears. Excellent poem :)
