heart
find your
refuge
in my arms
away
from
a world
that you
no longer
belong to

they don't
know what
you've
been through
your struggle
your pain
that all
you
wanted
was to
be loved

you reached
out
and found
me reaching
back to
you
my heart
looking
for
your heart

in my
words
your heart
found what
it had
always
longed for

the words
of a
poet of
love
a poet
of
life

not like
the words
you found
before
words that
asked you
to lose
yourself
to lose
your being
to be
covered
in nothingness
and to
give all
to
them

no heart,
the words
you found
simply asked
you to be
yourself
to be a
poet of
life
a woman
in love

they held
you in
their phrases
and caressed
your soul
with their
lines

and you
breathed
again

and you
loved
again

Within the
soothe of
your warmth,
my heart
developed
showering
tenderness
twill be a part
of your heart

When I
reached out
I find
kindness
framed by
your
loving soul

Your patience
wrapped me
in sighs
of love
and I
yes I could
breathe again
to find
myself
in you

(((hugs)))

"the words

******************
Your words taught me
how to breathe again

to savor the utterances
and the punctuated lines

to dance on the music
of the rhymes
you play

to sing along them
and listen to what u
say

Thank you for such a lovely read
