I Kept
by Lori L Moore → (All Poetry by Lori L Moore)
  
Share   Print  Save   Follow   Share on Facebook

I kept my heart alive for you
alive, yet veiled behind a shroud of
unspoken desire...
a cloak which no longer protects
the open wounds of former love...

I kept my soul awake for you....
fighting off the numbing effect
of your multiplied lies...
the accurate cuts from your precision tongue
left simple scars across the landscape of my inner being
covered by the salt of my shame...

I kept my dreams alive for you....
believing beyond hope that your vows
were deeper than the pit of empty lustful desire....
denying each sign of one sided love

I kept my spirit pure for you
willing to rise beyond the daily trials of life
willing to live as one with you forever....

I kept myself only for you
but what did you mean, when you said, I do....

I know from experience that wedding vows mean different things to different people. It's always painful for the one who means what those vows say when the other partner breaks their vows.

I don't know why Lori, but when I read the title, "I Kept", I wanted to expand the title and make it "I Kept, I Wept." Does that make any sense. Bill Murray
