Broken Shackles

Sometimes a person can be redeemed in love I think. at least, I'd like to believe it.

  

Golden rays with power to blind.

Giants of stone bending the light.

Your silouette hiding your eyes,

I watch the sun stream around and

from behind your head.

Bent light touches your hair

forming shapes.

In the morning misty cool air

I see the dream I once had

then forgot, now before

me shadowed by a new Sun.

You are the one to set me straight.

I am the one who is your fate.

We stand together and we know

now is the time...

never to be alone.

I felt the tug on a heart grown sore

I was the rug near the foot stomped door

Then you came, and I felt ashamed

I watched as you pulled me from the floor.

I stand in awe, I pray in grateful streams

to a reality between universal seams.

I can't believe you really picked me,

Marked in shackles, my wrists now free.

You are the one, me and you.

I had fallen, now whole and true.

Together we clasp and we know

in our time...

never again alone.

I believe second chances are possible, especially if two are willing to forgive and support each other during those troubled times. This is a lovely write for your loved one, a heartfelt open expression. Wonderful!

Isn't love grand and it brings about such beautiful poetry such as this.

I like to see such heartfelt poetry written from a man's perspective. You did a very lovely job displaying real feelings. Nicely written!

I like the way you described the journey to understanding love. I like the way you put two people together. Create a love where two people became one. I like the positive ending to the outstanding poetry.

What a beautiful tribute to love..to find someone who sees you perhaps not at your very best and still loves you for who and what you are is perhaps the most observant form of love. So very well crafted..I enjoyed this read very much
