Of Thorns and Roses

 

 

And maybe I'll realize that I love you today

take back all the things that I decided to say

Because when you spoke, frozen words in the grey,

I felt my heart beat for the first time in decades

 

And now when we kiss, I try not to breathe

because I'm afraid that this feeling might flee

Your hands are the sanctuary that I seek,

So when you hold me, know that I'm your's to keep

It doesn't need more! This is saturated with tenderness and the need for warmth! Beautiful and Light combination.

Amazing.... Loved it. The first stanza is my favorite. It relates to me to the day i got the proposal i dreamt of. Love could change many things.

Whoa this poem is impressive! It's too much. I love this poem, there's loads of emotion in this. I've favourited it.

this feels like it is the middle or a story yearning for the beginning and the end...

but it is appealing and has a great potential. You should exploit it!

Because when you spoke, frozen words in the grey,
I felt my heart beat for the first time in decades

I hear a little apprehension to trust love again, but the rewards are to great to overlook. So, you press onward willing yourself to feel again. Been there. Beautiful words!
