Beguiled

Oh beautiful soul, 
  beautiful heart, 
  your poetic words  an art. 
They paint a feeling in ink, 
  making me think  
  and I am shocked
  my heart unlocked.

It's been so long.
Never a love song
  have I received.
I always grieved.
Alone in my charity,
  never receiving clarity.

Now I'm smiling,
  so beguiling
  your poetry.

Beauty done succinctly - not one emotion no less than strongly delivered with brevity. You rocked this one. Hugs ... CayCay
