This was a difficult poem for me, one of my first from over a year ago. in this poem my long term relationship had ended and i was seeking renewed friendship. i loved her endlessly as i do now, but we both knew it could not work, so in my pain came this peice:


Chandra, Sleep as Well as I...


Each new night I welcome without regret
I see the beauty in every new sunset
Even as the icy air rolls in
I know my blood won't run thin
My swollen heart will keep me warm
Through what would be another sullen storm
Your truly in my arms tonight
I'll feel your form and hold you tight
And I know as I go into my sleep
It's our renewal of love that I weep
No more tears of lonely pain
The light you shine shows again
Though through great gaps we embrace
Knowing you still love me erases this space

Oh the line of swollen hearts and blood not running thin. Its a reminder of the strength what we call persistence. If love is truly blind; then how do we write such truths?? Just a thought... most enjoyed read.
