But soft… the ache begins, wanting, waiting, yearning, learning to love is hard, there is promise in your smile on your swollen lips flushed blushing I bluff and smile a small sad smile hoping you see me the naked soul not the immaculate woman the ice maiden the pedestal image for a night only I pray love me fill me take away my sorrow just once only once touch me. Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. Gail Sheehy |
