Already Written

~ Sitting beneath an autumn moon watching shadows dancing amidst pine needles swaying as rhythmic motions of light entrance Harmonic whispers of nightfall desires come as music to my mind, lyrics afloat on rhyming breezes in the key of unquestioned love I take pen in hand as a starlit melody traces over my thoughts, like a fallen leaf meandering slowly to the ground Though try as I might on this enchanted evening where my every dream comes true… I cannot write this song For it has already been written, perfect words in eternal ink of the deepest devotion on my heart…by you ~

I found myself returned to one of my struggles..... The word “love”.... a word which falls so short in our attempt to cover such a broad spectrum of emotion. Your words flowed lightly enough upon the page it allowed me to take my own journey while in contemplation of the scene you painted. Nice color. Darrell

Thanks so much Darrell, I am glad you liked this. I know what you mean, expressing love and making it feel real is difficult. I think I do better with broken heart poetry, that I can feel. :)
