FOR MY LOVE OF YOU

Folder: 
JOURNAL#31

my heart twists in such throes

for my love of you

and I smile through the joy and the pain

everywhere for me you exist

where does this strength that makes me feel so weak

well up from within

your eyes could light up a thousand skies

and all just in my heart

your kisses could warm long since dead limbs

and whatever else needed your warmth

I am lost in the ache of your words

I feel you so much sometimes it hurts

and I'm so scared sometimes that you might go away

I want you to be so, so happy

as you deserve that more than anyone else I know

and yet how would that make me feel

if another took you so gloriously away

and yet how would I feel if you sacrificed your future

waiting for me

it hurts either way I think of it

there has to be a way for us yet discovered

why else would God allow such a love to bloom

you are a dream of a man

I before never really knew

surely the internet isn't to be our only medium

love can be so ferocious

what I wouldn't do just to keep that lovely smile

forever lifted upon your cheeks

oh habibty of mine

you don't know what dragons I have sleighed in my dreams

to get to you

one day perhaps I can tell you

say on our honey moon

if you will have me that is

I just wanted you to have these words

as the poet in me can express this scary beautiful

feeling of falling far better than I ever could

hope to try to do

and this was my way to hold you to my heart

for just a moment longer...............
