Forever In Your Heart

0 posted 2007-07-27 01:13 AM

It was seven,
the day the sun melted,
your words floated,

out the window,
beyond the trees,
flowing, gone.

I tried to catch them,
running out the door,
chasing and reaching,

jumping, climbing,
the wind was too fast,
you escaped my arms,

sliding away, up,
like a heart shaped balloon,
tempting me to follow you,

then you disappeared,
gone, vanished from sight,
into the unknown.

Often I peer out my window,
looking into the clouds,
trying to see your heart,

floating back between clouds,
loosing air, needing my wind,
me exhaleing into you,

Catching you inside my hands,
until your soul melts,
from the heat of my love.

There you will be,
anchored, but free,
floating forever,

throughout the chambers,
throughout the caverns,
of this ever empty heart.

I like it
I can apprieate physical expressions of emotions

(I bet your heart isn't filled with hot air)

Very nice. I especially liked this part.

The clouds and wind are two very wonderful
parts of poetry and the picture that can
be painted and left there, floating away
in all sorts of imagined shapes.. Thanx for
the vision.
