Song for the Mended Heart

Is this love after all?

It doesn’t scream, softly treads

O’er my turbid soul

Isn't loud, just a whispering wish

Of a yearning twin

Is this love after all?

To look over my shoulder

And run into a bracing mist

To swoon at the touch

Of those seraphic hands

Is this love after all?

That a mellow light glimmers

And pours through the eyes

Lips quiver with desire

And cheeks gently blush

Is this love after all?

To surrender every inhibition

To let the walls down

To let passions mingle…

Yes, this is love after all.

This is what love is. To slowly open doors to happiness and pleasure. I tell the kids. Slow and easy does it. Need to enjoy and remember every step we take in the emotion of love. No weakness in the beautiful poem of love.

You are great at blending poetry and the poem's themes into a coherent piece of literature. For some reason, I felt like the "Is this love after all?" was a contraction for "Is this love after everything that's happened?"

So romantic in a whimsical way. It's enchanting. The imagery was great. And I could all but hear the breath of the last line being whispered. Awesome.

The slowed emotion that negates pace, well done, good read.
