My Silent Longing Alone at night my mind wanders free Wishing you here, here next to me Alone I lye with darkness my "friend" Engulfing my soul-- never my heart to mend. My mind drifts away to that beautiful scene Alone just us two on that shore so serene Swinging with the breeze in the warm summer rays Toes skimming grass till slumber drift us away. In my silent longing your heart speaks my name Yearning for "us" I call out just the same Torture me not with silence once more Speak to me my love, there remains an open door. "Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind." The Bard |

Mariee~ This is just lovely. Longing for that 'open door' to be entered. This one came from your heart and it shows. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

I have a longing myself. Know the feelings you express. Well done. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |
