Heart Dispute

I tell my heart to let things go-
A soul who I don’t even know-
A friendly face, I held her hand-
To say a prayer, it wasn’t planned.

I held it for a while at least-
Felt bitter sweet when we released
She introduced herself to me-
Our other hands so easily…

I guess my awkward silence showed
No matter- I must hit the road
But smiles and warmth those moments gave
A lot was spoken in a wave.

Hush my heart- nothing to say-
This all was just another day.
It skips a beat, I know who’s boss-
I gasp for breath and feel the loss.

To feel like this for just a name-
A soft warm hand, a candle flame.
Special moments I still feel,
Heart dispute, this time I’ll kneel.

John H. Bidwell

So perfectly and wistfully expressed…

Yet some of these ‘special moments’
linger in the heart forever more…

The romantic has spoken
and I listened to a soul that
longs for love. There is a sadness in all
your renderings. And it fits well.

John, so beautiful as always. Your poetry always makes me feel and that is the essence of real poetry to me. Lovely pen.

You have beautifully described what happened and how your heart betrayed you. I have had that feeling, myself.
