PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Can I trust myself to let go of everything?

To let in that which could uplift or destroy me?

Open this heart to receive another?

Let my heart's vigilance give way to affinity?



See, I've always wanted to meet you

Even when I didn't know it for sure

There's something in your heart so familiar

That makes me think together we can soar



I hope this connection will endure

I hope that this stays vibrant and true

But I'll tell you something I'm absolutely sure of

Mi corazón is always and forever with you



Down I plunge into my depths again

Analysing every possibility of outcome

But I know this fact without self-question

If I shy away, I'll forever lie here numb



There's something about you which makes me glow

Your resolve to ascend, to transcend limitations

To be the author of your own unique legend

Instead of being a page in the Book of Imitations



I hope this connection will endure

I hope that this stays vibrant and true

But I'll tell you something I'm absolutely sure of

Mi corazón is always and forever with you



I look at myself through this reflecting eye

And I look at your picture on my CPU screen

And I sometimes wonder how one like you

Can claim to love one who's so flawed and obscene



But then I remember the words that we share

Through Trans-Atlantic, surging current wire-frame

The side of me, little known, you've now awakened

Counteracting all feelings that constitute shame



I hope this connection will endure

I hope that this stays vibrant and true

But I'll tell you something I'm absolutely sure of

Mi corazón is always and forever with you



You see, my love, a soul like yours is hard to find

Amongst the mindless acolytes of whim and convention

In the land of cavalcading liars and haters

It's difficult to feel, let alone form a connection



So I now write this to the rare exception

The one whom which mi corazón resides with - you

I feel renewed through our electric bond

The question now is: "Do you feel it too?"



I hope that this connection will endure

I hope that this stays vibrant and true

But I'll tell you something I'm absolutely sure of

Mi corazón is always and forever with you
