She longed for him beautifully
in lingering sighs of heart
Pale beauty, clothed in
pure white
Feminine grace,
in delicate longing,
reaching to touch
his soul

And I paused,
passing by
My breath caught
as I too, stared towards the horizons
to catch sight of
the one she longed for,
Love



Not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

Such a lovely write from your heart!  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.

As sublime as the unheard sigh
more passionate than a lover's cry

Quite the breathtaking write, Tovi...I really like this...wonderfully written!

sp  

I hopelessly, helplessly, wonder why
Everything gotta change around me
I’d tell it to your face,
But you lost your face along the way...
