Marionettes

Listen to poem:
Your compassionate empathy, envelopes all of me Eyes dark like the night, yet only one star do I see My eyes are raining from your souls sensuality I want you to know you own my sentimentality The waters mixing between us are purifying perpetually Honoring who you are is not founded in any complexity Cut the strings, in sharing presence we are not marionettes Enjoy us, for us, in moments seldomly shared by puppets A tiny stage built by you and I to act out our plays All memories created to recall on life's gloomy days Never a daunting obsessiveness of you on my mind Just simply thinking of you always as my kind of "kind"

The person I wrote this to is no longer in my life on a daily basis. Their memory is never forgot! I am very glad you found this one :) I have not read it in a long time. Warmly A.S.
