DRAWING UPON MY DISCONTENT

Folder: 
JOURNAL#18

let me write for you of the love in the sky

streaming from my heart's summer moon

with but the loving blood gripped pen

of my heart's altering desire

through my devotion

I offer to you

all you care to know about tomorrow

whether your soul has endeavored to fully

ask or not

my tattered coat of quiet concern

rests gently about your still stiff shoulders

you have not yet guessed

just how well my heart loves yours

but one day you will

and because of that

we will both be quite blessed

yet for now

more sad is the sorrow

than that of a thousand newly shattered hearts

so call this

if you will

a 'Drawing Upon My Discontent'

as my days in future shall be

much happier spent.................
