Ever have a dream repeat... for years?


Poem Artwork

To give my soul
That is not enough
My life to give
That is not enough
The heart yearns
The soul cries
I know you are near
Yet you are so far
Just barely out of reach
Years of searching
Years of wandering
Caught in a shadow
Yes I am
Afraid not am I
For I know what you are
For I am the same
Yet different some how
Two worlds spin
Spin inside yet a third
Giving birth to an ancient soul
One hwo only knows pain
And heartache
Yearning for the light
The light of understanding
And the light of fufillment
I stand in the shadow of love
Watching the doors
Of the soul in your eyes
Longing to dream yet again
To share that brief embrace once more
For I now know who I am
I am you
The answer is buried in your gaze
As we become trapped
In the shadow

dark. evocative...the yearning---is it always present in the poet's soul? Is it what drives us to write what we write? Still haven't figured it out, but am definately enjoying the ride. Hope you are too. **Mari**

Very good Laura! This has a bit of a nostalgic tone. I like it.
