Emerge from shadows where hidden from me has been the secret doors to our past Open now let me into a heart craved more than life your arms, my only home your kiss, the sweet nectar that sustains me Awaken from the trance of apathy light torches, lead the way I beg you, my lord, let me find you, now before death steals away remaining embers of a love once flourishing as eden itself In your cool paths, I have walked away from the scorching heat of loneliness I'd found sheer joy in the amber lights dancing in your eyes whenever you gazed upon me Every beautiful thing on God's good earth became more radiant, more colorful because of you stars faded in comparison for you loved me Beneath you, I'd found ecstacy the rythm of life pounding hard in forceful beats, our hearts raging to become one lost in passion's fervor every night an adventure, every day a present to be opened, relished, & treasured forever in your beautiful garden of refreshment, I'd returned to my youth, growing healthy, strong happiness was our butterfly roaming free... When my soul became filled with your future, you marveled at the soft kiss of roses upon my cheeks, the long luxurious length of my hair, the soft joy in my eyes you cradled me in your arms, ready to fulfill my every whim for I had become as swollen fruit giving off heady scents of the future was there anyone more protected than I? anyone more safe? secure? never! until now... The waters have dried, my lord there is no shade shielding me from the scorching heat of loneliness the land is barren, parched & my feet burn as I make my way over this no man's land you appear here & there, a mirage a fortress with no key tell me, what has happened to us? Allow me access to your heart, my lord, for I am the true half place in my hands, the golden keys of your trust, love, & commitment take mine, so that we might finally be freed from barren's jail let us again become one but hurry, my lord, hurry! or we shall surely die... ~Tier{R.T.} 6/99 |

Tier, once again, you amaze me with the depth and honesty of your writing. . . this is really excellent. . . I loved the changes and the shifts of mood and motion. . . there was love, passion, desire, loss. . . all in one poem. . . well-crafted and well written my friend. . . -------------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
