Nobody really knows you
But you
Do
Reality

Inside that brain
Only you
Truly live
Others invited

A world
You alone
Reign over
Hopefully control

They stomp
Sometimes
On your heart

Still they can't touch
Your thoughts
Wishing for entrance
Yet unworthy of acceptance

Then there are those
Waiting
With true love
Loving your mind

Loving you

Such beautiful thoughts you have, Sir Robert. You are right that no one really knows us. And only if we are blessed with true love will someone learn to love us for our mind. You have been one of those who has been blessed with such a love. I have always loved reading of the love you and your wife shared while she was alive. Through your writing you have shown me that such a love is possible. I am so very glad you have had it in your life. Sorry for going on and on. A wonderful poem that gave me pause for thought.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

There are some poetic works that touch a reader personally as though the words were written for them only... this is one of them...

I love it!

Very profound write, Robert.  You got me thinking here.  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
