for Melissa Honeybee

why these tears dear one?
tears like these shouldn't come
from a heart of light
        a heart like yours
you tell me that you've looked inside
yourself and that all you've seen
        is a dark heart
            a dark and diseased heart

I know that you've been
through much dear one
that you've suffered much at the hand
        of deepest darkness
so much so that now you're beginning
        to believe the words
you're listening to the songs that
it sings
          minor melodies of pain and agony

come now and wipe your tears dear one
let me help you pick up the shards
        of the shattered mirror
                and show you your heart as we see it
a heart of light
        full of rolling meadows
                and delicate flowers
a heart where the Major melodies of love,
        happiness, and joy play and sing always

look now dear one
look now and be healed
        we will share your tears
                and we will hear your heartsong

A beautiful poem for a beautiful poet!  And a writer with a very kind heart!

I agree completely!  

To capture and live a moment is truly living
