REACQUAINTED

Folder: 
JOURNAL #32

after the fire of that first breath

upon my cheek

the grace with which you held me

became clear

as sensuous as a man's power can attest

in moments others might see as weak

so very warm you were

agile and promise filled

with hauntingly handsome features

a woman's eyes could get lost in

you radiated to me

that spark of a man who truly cares

why still, I wed thee's smile

to this summer's day

a moment captured in newly framed love

Reacquainted

the promise and the longing

that never once slipped away

joy emerges from such sorrow

a greater triumph and testimonial

to what you, yourself first suspected

there between us

long before I

an inexplicable connection

ere that deep, deep feeling you had

that I somehow belonged to you

even from the out of sync beginning

you remained stead fast

and beautifully consistent

until I believed as well

apparently I ever had

even then

if unknowingly

and still I do

with every fiber of my

broken hearted being.........
