Dear heart.

Dear heart.

A Poem by Sarah McKeever Hitt

Set me free, dear heart

and I promise I will come back to you

in the star lit morning feel me

because I am keeping watch over your sleep

those moments when you are vulnerable

and you feel your resolve slipping

taking you to a broken place where you feel barely breathing

I will stitch you together at just the right moment,

and bring you back to me.

Timing and patience

silence and waiting

nothing will keep us apart

as long as we can still dream.

The lighting bolts which ring like fury

and the lovers that keep us apart

are no match for what lies in store for us

when we finally choose to believe.

This poem truely reads like a dream. I know soulmates exist, because I have one and no matter how hard we try to stay away from each other, life always keeps putting us in the same place. Strangely, this has gone on for about forty years. Five of which we spent together. We have moved on to others and it hasn't worked out for either of us, but the world keeps placing us in the same spot together. Maybe, someday we will choose to believe.

I really loved this write!
