PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

HeartSpeak

and there beneath the tender of his words
It felt like the universe only ever existed
to elicit our souls and lure our hearts
above the outlying rubble of impossibilities
bringing us together beyond the concrete pulse
that had constructed both of our worlds
….for far too long

the poet in me wanted to believe
that nothing could stand in the way of fate
that destiny can indeed move mountains
and that I myself would risk it all
in the name of cavalier confessions

but with age comes truth knowing
and some truths can’t be un-known
maybe its faith I’ve lost, maybe its hope
but either way when I’m not there
lost in the beauty and gentle of his heart
I can see no possible way to escape
…the life I live

though I long to pull that curtain
…. and see the wizard

letting him Hollywood me to our tryst
beyond the yearning of simpatico dreams
and there unabashedly his soul’s tongue
becomes harlequin personified
no longer mere duplicatus serendipity
or longing fragments of what could be

but …

a tapestry of events that could
carry us beyond the truths of today
and into the preconceived reality
that two hearts have shared for so long
that despite all my ‘knowing’
love ‘can’ rise above all obstacles
and fly us aloft to awake in our dreams
