There is no one else that comes here
To this depth of my feelings, not near
Think it strange, or out of step
The fleet of these times inept
A casual diminish of truth and grace
It’s honor guard of tear stained face

I speak to you, with my whole heart open
To bless the world in each whispered token
No hidden motive, no sales pitch
Nothing forbidden, no surface itch
So much less have you been sold
Yet I obsess that we are gold

We do not own each other
Nor should it be of one another
There is no chain or tether
There is no mark on me, not ever
I am filled of you in light and in love
That guides my life and all I’m of

how it should be; if only the ball and chain didn't have to come with love
you speak of a vision many of us wish for
and create sometimes only in our poetry
applause for this
