Perhaps love appears when least expected
........................................


Without Knowing
……………………………………………………………………..


How can it be,
That you breached the walls…
Of the fortis layers,
Surrounding my open…
But guarded heart ?


Is this a luxury of love…
That weakens and vaporizes,
Scars left by others ?
Playing full chorus…
Over and over…again,
Till I’ve memorized each word…
So convincing…without knowing.


With weakness comes strength…
Here in this place,
You’ve crafted so skillfully…
Without knowing,
When empowered by following…
My heart.


When was it I resigned…
From self-induced protective arena,
That held me captive ?…
Without knowing.


Was it those cautious paces,
You took through my soul,
Eyes glazed with scrutiny…examining…
That wore weak…
Protective tiers of my heart…
Without knowing ?


Could this be…
What I miss most,
When you are away ?
Abandonment and surrender,
Has freed me…
To love…without fear.


Come home my love…
We’ve not made enough memories,
To sustain me…when you are gone…


We never will.
