Would You Let Me?A Poem by Emily
Say I wanted to nestle in your arms
And sleep through the ever Just to be close to your warmth To sail through contented dreams together What if I wished to confess The darkest recesses of my mind Would you grab a flashlight and go spelunking? Should I decide to recite every word I've thought of you Breathing a sigh because I thought it could never be And write you a letter of the poems I wrote The songs I've heard...It could never be enough I could scrawl you across the stars! and it wouldn't be quite right But these things...these daft ideas... These soft-hearted daydreams... They fill me with cotton-candy goodness And a sprinkle of hope Imagine I wanted to murmur in French J'adore, Je veux toi Je veux toi et moi Could you reply with "Oui,Oui," In the way only you can? Will you be my muse, Let me draw a thousand studies To try to capture your essence Would you let me? You whisper to me, "Yes," A sweet melody in my ear, And I can be free. © 2014 Emily |
