Deep in the heart

0 posted 2001-04-19 03:01 PM

I am torn.
Drawn as if to the sun
Knowing the closer I go
The worse the burn.
Fearing rejection.
Fearing acceptance.
Fearing.
Loving.
Respecting.
Anticipation
Quickens my pulse.
I take pen in hand
To write:
Can you accept love
Boldly giv’n from such as I
Who loves you so much
No,
Don’t ask,
Tell!
(Maybe she won’t like a senryu)
Would that I could speak
My love in words that touch you
As soft lips melding
Or
Would that I could speak my love
Words brought on wings of dove
Whispering in thine ear
While holding thee so near.
No,
I think I’ll just read
Her verse.

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

ahhhh ... like the perverbial moth to the flame ...

never fear your own words ... silence is always worse than sincerity.
this is a very cool premise and inspire.
well done poet sir

I love your imperfections ... I love your everything ...
Your broken heart ... your broken wings.

Senyru or sonnet or sweet songs or soft whispers... if the words are sincere, they'll be beautiful to one who returns your feelings whatever the format. *S* Of course... reading's nice too... but you never know what response you might be missing by not writing/trying. *S* Great poem!
