HURDLES

Folder: 
OLDIE MOLDIE



how come i can’t utter

the words you’d love to hear?

is it fear that halts my feelings?

or the uncertainty that gnaws in me?

still the wonder of you lingers

longer than the finest perfume

you dazzle me, i am bewitched

but that is not all!

shall strife and woes to come

still endure your love for me?

will our life’s journey

finds and shall find you unweary?

when the seas blow its storm

drifting me in its tumultous wave

will you help me steer to safety?

will your arms encompass me

when my knees are weak with malady?

would you not fly free

when you find a place

more delightful than our nest?

i long for you, i am a captive

so i jump heedless

braving the hurdles

higher than me.
