Love Letters in my wait I found you in poetry my very breath spoke your name and echoed between my heart’s lullaby in strongest beat skin never before ached this until letters created a romance in song hands once clinched found them open and wrapping another’s then and only then did I know no part of me unfulfilled once a language of longing so vastly hollow forever now to be gone and now new words find me walking unknown steps and no night shall find me without you "I wish that I was beautiful or you were half way blind" |

Dear Helen, I could have written this myself, and not changed a single thing. You are in full bloom lovely lady, and the fragrance of your words is intoxicating. So very gorgeous. |

Finding a lover in poetry is poetry within itself. ~~ Those who are silent are the first to be shot. ~~ |

..and even in length, the poem flows and has a rhythm to it. Sometimes that's a hard feat to accomplish! Excellent writing as always. |
