Whisper To Me

tonight as darkness
is in slow unfold
whisper to me
secrets of time untold
tell me how love
first came to be
how waves tickle
gently caressing the seas
of how mountains are
poetry in rock
hearts are things
we learn to unlock
why seeds are
just a tiny tease
when standing lost
in this forest of trees
and sand sifts softly
through the glass
after healed from sadness
a joy comes to surpass
and the riddles
of things unknown
your breath is the same
air that has forever flown
and was there
ever a time
when you
were not mine?

I’m not disappointed,  I never expected anything from you.

Exceptional! I especially like the last line...captures so well the endurance and familiarity that follows love. ThisDiamond
