(Companion piece for 'Souls
Apart' in Prose)



My love -
you swept in and
stormed the safeholds
of my heart

I have no shelter now

My soul -
you whisper-kissed and
freed fervent life
with every breath

I own no anchor now

My heart -
you listened soft and
stemmed the implore
of my sleeping love

I'm driftwood on the sand now

My dove -
you broke all trance and
captured close
my stifled loneliness

I'm safe against all tides now

My love -
you swept in and
stormed the safeholds
of my heart...

I have your shelter now

I'm surceased within you now

Ok, as much as I hate to say it....
Ditto the above.
WOW WOW WOW WOW

K- do you know that YOU never cease to amaze me? You are the breath of life that makes each day go by.
Beautiful images here, and clever usage of words...."whisper-kissed" ...Love that!

You are one of the reasons I'm sitting here at 1:45am. Beautifully breathtaking.

My star, you do ever have a problem with your name don't you?? LOL
This goes back up because I miss you right now and wanted to feel closer. Alas, reading your words only makes it that much more difficult.
