NOR IS A DIARY

Folder: 
JOURNAL #20

nor is a diary as tender as I

nor is a diary so willing to cry

tears of such honest loving

over pain thats so clearly read

in your free spilling of words

the regrets in your loneliest moments

the stinging sorrows you've endured

I can feel the depth of your scars

as sure as I hear your lilting voice

in my ears

a pinnacle moment of such sweet

connection offers what one's suffering

most truly fears

Discovery

I have unearthed

such Achilles heel

in one true moment of sweet clarity

I surmise

only a kiss could better explain to you

just now how much for you I feel

ah but don't fret for long my darling

for I've still got your number

its writ in my heart

and as ever the more we are

simpatico.................
