I can see my life reflected in your eyes
And I want to stop my breath
So as to hold onto this moment
In this way, even cheat death

Lost in oceans of violet blue
Drowned in depths that are infinite
How I want to have that feeling
But for now I will only dream of it

The reflection is so intense
More than I, brave enough to bear
For the ache is so daunting
Reaching ever for something not there

And I know that after you’re gone
Empty will be more than the sky is wide
Even as I would breathe again
The soul that is all of me will have died

~ You have the ability to make your reader feel what you are feeling. You have such a loving, tender heart and have the ability to express it so well ~ so convincingly.

Sending a warm hug your way,

Linda

If ever I need to define love, I won't go to Webster's... instead, I'll read the first and last verse of this poem again. *S* This is pure heart expression... and the heart it reflects is so beautiful!!
