Let Me Be

You can be those slanted slopes of quandary,
                                       asymmetrical lines on my grid 
                            the definition of doubtful,
                                               the night
                    
                                            and my valley 
                     
                                                 --------  
         
                     
                                   Let me be everything else:
                  
                                 
                                            Your certainty
                                               Your truth
                                             Your security
                                               Your light
                                            Your mountain
                                               

                              
                                                “Yours”

So much wonderful intent here, and only the realization of a very deep trust ... and that is so often the issue, the conundrum, the "walls" that divide hope from reality and passion from loneliness. Beautiful write, Brandy - I thoroughly enjoyed this diversion into your mind and heart! I have to "drop by" once-in-a-while to be refreshed and renewed by your pen. Many thanks for that, and blessings, joyous for your soul. :-) <3

This has quick yet penetrating flashes of adamant romantic love spillings, and needs. I sat with your poem awhile because I wanted to spend time on its lines - they caught something in me as yet undefined. Perhaps a fascination in the style? I dunno know, but I did like it ever, ever so! All the best ... CayCay

Yes, the context is powerful!! Unwavering!! These words descend upon the page, in a definite way. I am in awe with your observation. Thank you CayCay. My best to you. ~ Brandy
