Be Not A Stranger To Love

early as I sit at writers desk
another morning from lack of rest
gazing out, a sea of fog rest low on fields
this sight explaining my emotions so real

hidden from me is a once familiar place
but as I look can not recognize one trace
a raven flies on ebony silken wings
I strain to hear him but only silence sings

all the things this field is void of
is the echo…be not a stranger to love
for love can melt thick fog so deep
replacing uncertainty with something to keep

opening our arms they become wings before our eyes
and in another’s hand, again we learn to fly
steps in love and fog can be a risk
this stranger is tired of walking through the mist

"I have already paid for all my future sins."  Sade...(King of Sorrow)
