Poem Artwork

My heart talks softly
to your soul..
Open up..
Listen close..
My lips whisper secrets
in your ear
Listen closely
Love is near..
My eyes are piercing..
They see through you..
They see your bruised heart
Your fears
Your doubts
Your past tears..
They see your wants..
Your desires..
Your wishes
Your fantasies..
In all of these...
They still see me..
I feel your lips
close to mine
Isn't love wonderful ..
When hearts listen
to your soul..
When we trust enough
to finally let go..
And all we had to do
Was listen
....Listen close.

Yes beautiful and the last stanza the
hardest to do.
