Admiring Greatly

At the verge of this our day break, 
permit me pour this few words from my cup;

For these are not the lyrics of a song, 
but the voice of my soul, 
the cry of my life;

You possessed my air of indifference, 
appearing quite debonair, 
making me fall without sliding to the sabotage of your indifference;

With your unique kind of joyful smile, 
you engulf me, 
filling my yesterdays with your love, 
creating a light I don’t understand, 
demanding my fingers on your soft ivory skin;

Such awareness to these emotions, 
untouched and raw becomes more expose than my flesh, 
and my heart at your feet teetering on the brink;

Falling is inevitable, 
but in whose arms is the question my heart holds, 
wondering why it has not been declared, 
for the answer lies within you my love, 
as I truly and madly fall deeply into you.

Aw Richard. True love has it's days and its questionalble days. All we have to do is discern which is right for us. Not always the right answer but we do the best we can. Keep up the good work. Glad to meet you. God Bless, Cile
