Entity of the Forest

I am at your mercy, entity of the forest, Longing , burning to understand your hostile ways! For it is merely a moment in time, Bound by your strange presence, That I realize you are much more than what meets the gaze, Of every endearing fright, I understand your heart of night! In wonderment of your wander, I have reached this time lag into your life, In the hellish furies that you do tame in your mysterious night... I have felt the fears of your past waking life, Your journeys into time spells of loving lost array I never knew I would meet the eyes that now do stray, Into futures you have always known, For you travel into zones one would be lost in forever... Though I must merely hope, That the future you see in me Will lead us both to trust, willingness and sympathy... To words with meaning, To illusive fears melting into understanding, Your bindings soon shall loosen from me, So that I may bind you with loving embrace, And eternal assurance that in this world, alone You shall never face....

Laura, it is an encounter that is fleeting but also very touching. We try to understand the natural entities, but just when we think we do, something strange happens. We all will take such different things away from this. I read the comments below with fascination. Somehow you are able to touch so many hearts with your words--including mine.

This poem enthralls with paranormal passion my dear Laura...I've been reading, and rereading this charm all night...you share more than just a curiosity of the heart, you and he share the pure spirit of love..."That the future you see in me, will lead us both to trust, willingness, and sympathy..." that is sincere romance! You free style in love with such fine touches of rhyme and desire woman...your heart speaks so powerfully, so beautifully...J.A.B.
