A Thousand Eternities
By Cor

A thousand eternities slip through the sands of the hour glass
As I wait to see my love again.
The void of my existence yearns to be filled with her presence.
Time flows by like molasses on a cold winter’s day
My heart rips as I hear her deny our destiny,
Every time she holds back what her heart desires to say.

My soul yearns for the completion of hers
Can the feelings be wrong as my whole being revels in them?
Will she deny forever the truth of her heart?
The silence of her words deafens me, she’s always ready to flee
Locked away afraid to let others see she fears who she might be
Must we fear ourselves, always afraid others will judge who we are?
Shall we always hide never to be free?
I offer her me, not the facade I let others see
Will she set herself free?
Can we ever be?

*sigh* to fear love is something I have a lot of understanding of. I hope she has the strength it takes to stop running and let you hold her safely in your arms. A poem that touched the core of me. Very well done. **hugs**

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

Excellent...lots of feelings...lots of
variety in word selection...powerful message.
Your spelling of "heart" should be just that,
not "hart"....very well written...lots of
emotion.  And not too long...

Gorgeous poem, such tender feelings. It’s so frustrating when someone hides behind a wall and refuses to come out (speaks she who has hidden behind one many a time.lol). All one can do is slowly take the wall down, one brick at a time.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

Poems are about feelings and letting others see those  feelings.  I think you did that well in this one.

Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream.

"The silence of her words deafens me, she’s always ready to flee
Locked away afraid to let others see she fears who she might be
Must we fear ourselves, always afraid others will judge who we are?"
It's sad when we permit the opinions of others to allow us to disavow love.
A very tender write.
