For Whom You Write |

For Whom You Write It is for him, that intangible person You’ve not yet met, but he has Always circled the axis Of your thoughts. It is for him That you quill your deepest Secrets, your strongest desires, Whispering ancient secrets Not even known to you Before he embraced Your mind. He has always been there A faceless Presence in strong-armed dreams Of nighttime flights Ingenious personified, a Man strapped by grace and dignity Wrapped in silk cloak and Dark shadows But the unique thing being, he is every Man’s inner self, the one He cannot by design present in Public, but the one who lives In his heart and soul It is he, who bends in the wind, Who perseveres to triumph Over any obstacle. In gentleness, he soothes, By compassion, he argues for all rights For all people. Only his mind Can best his own attempts, So his will power is stronger. He is who he is. He visits my dreams. I write my soul for him. It is minor payment duly returned. |

An absolutely beautiful poem, Karilea.... It is he, who bends in the wind, Who perseveres to triumph Over any obstacle. I know this man well...and he does bend the wind! Thanks for writing so beautifully about him, Karilea ~loving hugs Lyra |

Wonderful!! It describes that person we want to be with and the person we want to be. The people we dream about in poetry from. I like it. Don't hold back the words you really mean. |

But the unique thing being, he is every Man’s inner self, the one He cannot by design present in Public, but the one who lives In his heart and soul It is he, who bends in the wind, Who perseveres to triumph Over any obstacle. Some women don't know him when they trip over him. |

"Some women don't know him when they trip over him." Now those are the truest words ever written. Lots of advise in this one dear friend. |
