To be free and deeply in love

With someone that only comes once

Is like living heaven here on earth

Until it ends, until it hurts- endlessly

 

Running wild through the fields

I still remember how real it feels

Beneath that August morning sun

If only in my day dreams, again

 

I sit here staring off in clouded space

As if I know in some way, some day

My soul will soon get the chance

To chase after you yet again, girl

 

I pray with each passing second afforded me

You’ll be the one to take me home to…eternity

Ascribe Where flight became stalled Because fear stood its ground There- is where I- was reborn Where I relearned my reality As broken fragments of a self Where I’ve seen the unveilings Of time, truth, and Holy love Where angels cried and wept For my salvation and healing And I- wept along with them Where fire seared my mission Forged into my soul as passion A combatant for the wounded Of humanities silenced…truths Poet of the Light © 2023 I write meaningful (to me) poetry from my heart and share it here. I tend to approach everyone as a friend until they demonstrate something different. I enjoy having creative exchanges with others, like-minded artists, or writers.

  3. This poem is so perfectly expressed. Finding mutual love is such a rare feeling that stays with us a whole lifetime (maybe more). Reading your poem is a gift, beautifully comforting. I think you’ll be reconnected someday, somewhere with your love❤️

    1. I’m truly humbled by your gifting words. Thank you dearly. Some touch our hearts but others have the ability to see, to touch and reach our souls.
      I believe we reconnect on the other side with all our loved ones, once we get there.
