With eyes of crimson, bleeding down-
To form a pool upon the ground,
I ask you why you weep this way-
"My lover died two years today…"

Sorrow racks your very veins-
Belying fits of truth and pain,
Stay with me, I say tonight,
Meet my soul in midway flight.

With tawdry tears you turn away-
"She never would have been this way,
She’d live alone for days on end-
Never seeking chalice nor friend…"

‘Tis time to mend this fear inside-
I know her love will cease to die,
Come, let me cradle your intensity-
Rely on this, my friend in need…

Softly still, he finds my hand-
Desires only in one woman,
Yet knowing this, I am content-
This is the truest way of friends…

Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

Bittersweet and tender...I really loved this line:

"Come, let me cradle your intensity-"

...this poem embodies the essence of a true friend...I can't help but get the sense that a true friendship is a basis for a true love too...

This shows your truly incredible soul and all the gentility we wish we could find when in need. You must be an inspiration to all who know you. I am inspired.
