Echo Back My heart has reached for you this night From all around me, echoes back We are always touching The curve of up and down elongates In these times when we are apart Somehow, time has been tender Yet the loneliness I feel is deep Though I could change it if I chose What we share has the power to heal me Surround and conceal me from the harsh This is a real part of closeness Stripped of flowery language In the balance to euphoria I have come to understand the mood How feeding the yearn makes the fire burn We are always touching Symbolically and reverently one Poking questions in the fabric of absolute trust Each time, the solitude of night echoes back your voice to me And I lay down in the strength, held softly in your heart, To sleep Copyright Kkh 5/22/06 |

This is a real part of closeness "Stripped of flowery language In the balance to euphoria I have come to understand the mood How feeding the yearn makes the fire burn We are always touching Symbolically and reverently one Poking questions in the fabric of absolute trust" ____________________________________________ I LOVE this - you have some great images here.

Very well crafted poem brought to a fine poetic ending of: "Each time, the solitude of night echoes back your voice to me And I lay down in the strength, held softly in your heart, To sleep" |
