This was written after my greatest heart- break...I was so lost, I wasn't sure if I was going to make it back, but I did! :-)
My heart lies shattered and seeks to redeem
That freshly tilled garden of soulful dreams
Shards and slivers of it there in the soil
Flooded with tears, roots torn from earth to spoil
You came on strong, like a wild fiery wind
Hot and caressing words that scorched my skin
I gave freely with no expectations
Sating desire with sweet affirmations
Smoothing creases from your complexity
Emotions raw with pure perplexity
I thought it was I, I guess it was you
Insecurities blinded me from truth
Love unconditional, it’s just my way
Luminescent heat, here in my cache
I could wield words and wound as I have been
No, not by words, but your actions therein
To forgive, I know that it is divine
Therefore, I have, it’s there in my design
Just friends, is that how this story will be?
No rare tale of great love, for You and me?
