Imperfect

In this small, quiet place deep inside
That ripples from nothingness to highest tide
In mere detail of my every thought
Caresses farther reaching than such footfalls wrought
Shaping your mouth to the form of my lips
Sculpting your skin danced beneath fingertips
Perhaps out of reach in these times far apart
Ever the nearer at home in my heart
Your mind is the blade that dissects fact from truth
Every morsel about me presumed beyond proof
In the absence of fact, quick to fill void and vale
This emotional well so disposed to set sail
Or take flight on the tide lifted near to the sky
So intent on the wind chimes dallied pleasantly by
Dreams meant to dream, as the sun meant to shine
In this small, quiet place imperfections align

It's amazing how imperfections can add up to a kind of perfection and we all keep searching, sometimes for ourselves.

This is simply great!!

Every morsel about me presumed beyond proof
In the absence of fact, quick to fill void and vale

So many jewels in this beautiful write... but these two lines really resonate in me. *S*

I loved all of this poem, but I really loved those lines.

Thank you for writing and sharing,
