Never mine to hold and love
although the day will come
when I might have only you.
I fell from the grace of belief
when you broke my heart
and fluttered back up into the sunlight
when I wanted to mend yours.
The mending can't be done by me
and I must realize that you are fleeting
although I am ready to take that chance.
I want to be your possession of tenderness
enclosed in your arms just being myself
but the dream we share is fragile solidity.
Dust me now in the inquiry of your need
and ask me gentle questions
in the most rare place
where spirits join hands for a moment or more.
Take your key (the one that glows with my love)
and turn it in the lock of the Gate Of Dreams
while I stand in keep
over a realm I built especially for love to dwell.
Follow a special path with just your name
ensnared into its breath of lushly watered life.
Be entangled in the joy of loving me
as I will be surrounding you in welcome.

Sometimes the heart needs the solace of solitude and silence.

WOW! You have such incredible talent. This will be one of my favorites.

'Be entangled in the joy of loving me

An unbelievably good line.

You hold your arms open wide to receive him still knowing that you cannot heal him. Magnificent. Your love can give him the strength he needs. BRAVO!!!This poem is beautiful and filled with tenderness.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

A lot of great imagery in this piece, Jennifer. You make mushy work very well.

Personally, I'd like to see more of this kind of work from you. *hugs*
