You seem in ragged shell
That turns my heart upon the walk away
An ancient call that set it’s mark another day
We share a river here
So fine the tribute infinite and clear

The sound of bottomless refrains
Searching us in sacrament and certainty
Two seas of one soul defy diversity
Pouring out of lucent pictures
Capturing of loves most potent mixtures

The soft of me responds
And grand façade escapes the drapes
Thought hard and dark but mitigates
Emotions that belong to us in trade
That resonates in refuge yet by heart displayed

And I would wrap you in my arms
Keep the chill away that senses disobey
Your hand my guide and by your side to lay
For found the caverns languished in a twilight chaste
And there resounds your voice to echo in its place

Wonderful write Kathleen..
And this last stanza?  WOW!!
Hugs sweet poetess~

To have lived the dream of a love so true...
   is to have seen a glimpse of heaven.

Very interesting write.  Sounds of want and desire, yet uncomfortable with a display of your true intentions, willing if the feelings are mutual, but also willing to remain as two separate seas sharing the earth, yet separate bodies.  Not sure.
Maybe I’m reading too much into this.  I enjoyed the read.  Very nice write.

A beautiful resonance of love.
