Don't spare me
your fears
your lonely feelings
your wonderings
your hopes
your dreams
Don't deny me if you care
your understanding of life
the very reason you believe you're here.
protect me
from the evil thoughts
that seek to invade my feelings for you
protect me
with your honesty
protect me if you dare
save me
from the falsehood of lying
save me
from the emptiness
a one sided love can be
save me
from the lonliness
that has allways sought to overwhelm me
Your calling is a pen longing for trust, a haven from the lies of past betrayal and a warm and tender love that is there when you believe.
Your words cling to love as though it is a moment merely tasted.
It isn't. It is there.
Love,
Susan
