Never Alone

Keeping the faith...

Oh, my sweet love, you have nothing to prove
To these adoring eyes you are perfection
Still seeing myself in you, how I so linger between the lines
Still beating within your chest, expelled with every breath
Taking my words to change them
Taking my hopes to twist them
For another...
For what will I say when it hurts?
Knowing the heartache, the anger, the strain I have caused
Decorated in your pretty endearments snapping like a whip
And in the shadows where I fall before you

How can you not know of how I ache to take you into my arms?
Can you not feel me as I feel you?
Not even time has dared to come between us
What hope does distance have when faced with our hearts?
As even now, I hold you against this chest
Even now, I run to you, withstand beside you
For us...
Can close my eyes to get lost in your hair
Twine our two hands against a steady cadence
Smile so warmly cheek to cheek as I hum of our soul-song
If only to remind that I may seem far, but am ever near

Should you know of how I love you
Would you break the rules to be at my side?
Would you weep in sheer relief as I would?
Leap into these arms which can recall every second without you
Kiss of these trembling lips which have waited... Waited so long for you
Would you take my yearning heart into your delicate hands?
For yourself...
Would you honor your truths? Our truths?
Because we both know that we will always find the other there
Amongst the many curves, the dusty stepping stones
Where our two paths collide, coincide, and not one of least resistance

Charming and beguiling... the outpourings of a longing soul... I was struck by the snapping of the whip, the twine of hands against a steady cadence, by the dusty stepping stones that lead to honored truths. The words flow with intensity and feeling, so we never doubt your beautiful intentions... Reading you is like being caressed in a warm shower by soft fragrance that probes and finds the places of pleasure...I find your writing simply delicious...
