PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

unwavering delight

expressions of

unharnessed want

subtle futility

perhaps

but I don't like to think

that way

the pond rises

for us

hoping to be a stream

fervent ponder

shared in equal pain

your heart of warm flesh

contained

in a cold stone structure

with bars

but not to a time we can name

disembodied memories of we

your stream of consciousness

pools more faithfully

to a

delayed moment in time

we both ache

so strongly

to see come to pass

one airport out of

thousands

how could either of us

have known

it would be the portal

to fresh new beautiful

beginnings

don't you know

for you

my heart would hold its beat

forever

if need be

because that's what real love does

it waits

until love is allowed to take

(and receive)

its turn

and so

we

wait

transfixed by a date

we can not yet jot down

on just any calender

but only that of our own..................
