There is a touch that we share The in between of mind and body Shimmering atop the pond of another day And in these times, we joust in gentle ways Hoping for a glimpse at that swollen truth Something speaking deep down inside The echo tells, “she loves you, she really loves you”. And I do, from the inside out and always Among expressions that are only us Pulling at the sutures of a wounded yesterday As these frail hearts we let open pour Filled with so much hope and so much fear For the thin skin of healing is fresh And I hear it, breath it, drink it in “He loves you, he really loves you”. Baring the parts of me never seen Never told before, so cautiously and happily There in the after, still spellbound The untied laces of my best shoes trip me Into questions heavily to kneel in my own arms And I trace the space where you just lay To wonder of the sunrise met beneath your hand Copyright Kkh 01/09/06 [This message has been edited by ThisDiamond (01-09-2006 10:49 PM).] |
