From underneath a love letter
Stored in a box
Crawled a huge spider,
Just enough to let me know
It was there
Freaking me out
For it had awaken
My forgotten arachnophobia
within my id .
~*~
Startled
From a state of uncertainty
As I was reaching
For a love letter in a box
While exiting a dream
Where I saw you not.
~*~
Was this an omen
To keep me away
from your aching heart
That needs the passion
Of
My tender loving care?
~*~
Was this a hurtle
I am to encounter
As I dream
Dreams of you so far away.
~*~
My love for you
increases in its intensity
My loneliness echoes
Within walls
Once filled with the laughter
Of two souls deeply in love.
' To keep me away from your aching heart'... 'As I dream dreams of you so far away' MOST BEAUTIFUL WORDS!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR words are from my heart!!!!!!! Liana Margiva

William,
I have to tell you, this poem inspired me so much that I wrote a poem in response to this, like we do when we collaborate..it's entitled, "Dearest Sweetheart", You bring out the best in me, my dearest friend.
Peace, love, and light,

...the symbol 8 is one of eternity...never ending circle...perhaps 8 legs of this spider...hold one letter close to your heart forever.
well done William...

This brings tears to my eyes. I can only speculate that this 'separation' is not one of choice. I feel your loss and emptiness. May this sadness be short-lived and you find a loving companion to brighten your days and nights.
You used an unusuual device to let us all speculate on how lvoers can be separated byt the miles and circumstances. A very tender read and a very inventive opening.
Inspirational poetry, written from the heart and soul. Verses that are well-suited for reading on a rainy day and that are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face.
Dear readers, this is my third book of poems, and inside are a special collection of what have turned out to be not only MY personal favorites, but also the favorites of many of YOU. Some of these have never been available in print before...
