I sighed, "What do you know of love"

The abstract is
only a phase deep and profound
caught in a maze, vague and
unsound

Just beyond
pretending to see, unable to know
what loving will be when love
cannot show

The tangible evidence
that our story goes on underneath
the throes born of love gone
amiss -
with each tasteof a kiss bursting
on orb of bliss - a little like this;

Its really faith
wishing I could fly to aplace
nearby
away from the lie about you and I

Held before
my heart feeling hallowed,
sickenedand swallowed
making all that followed
weakened and shallowed

The hard facts acceptance
that our knowing the truth of
lying ensconced
in young love - promises made, yet
never clear;
finding ones youthful cheer lost
when held
much to dear, and that has
taught me to fear

That love just is...

"Nothing...I know nothing of love," he whispered

The strands in your eyes
That color them wonderful
Stop me & steal my breath...

Some dreams refuse ever to leave
the reaching of the self to bring
only close the object touching or not
corporeal reality is a heartbeat and much
illusion in the larger realm of SoulsHeart
some wounds bleed forever sunrises can last
beyond forever in the heart of the soul
all questions answer themselves in our
ever expanding roles which lead back
back to forevers gentle hold
we are no less
yet always seek the more

This is stunning...

I love the format and the intellect apparent--the ending was emphatic. Wonderful stuff here.

(sigh) This is excellent, sweet friend, I too just love your screen-name, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Rayne, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!
