Fear Not, My Love
I d r i f t e d
amongst the willow trees in the breeze-
swaying the barren branches into love’s fascination.
sitting along the pebbled shore
assembling sandcastles and counting stardust
plummeting down onto the ebon eventide so gently.
we tremble not at what lies ahead,
for we are but a lifeline to the sunburst of dreams,
our love travels beneath the ocean floor.
FEAR NOT, my love-
I have been enraptured by the effluence of
your unyielding devotion,
encompassing me in all the metaphors and syllables
one woman can withstand.
I never needed a soul to wash away my sins,
but a man to tarry me into lands b e y o n d heaven’s gate.
for you are my redemption and more-
my truce in a war, my salvation in life’s atonement.
you e a s e my aggrievances,
remedy all things that have brought me pain.
