Can I rest my weary head on you? There is nowhere else to be Just hear your heart, hear it to Beat its steady beat for me Can we be so quiet here? There is nothing I can say No words in me, so much fear You cannot make it go away Just be for a while, just be So I can sleep, not be afraid Because I know that I'll badly Need every soothing thing you said To feel that I am still alive That I am worth to be around That I am here with you, I've Won this time, feel ground. *** Meme by Mel Copyright Darren White September 20, 2016

Your poem express great emotion and carries a consistent theme of love's triumph over time and pain. An outpouring of emotions that drips unto the page, seeping deep into the readers thoughts. It is a summary of love, as seen through the eyes a poet, and a tribute to a feeling perhaps passive but not forgotten or forsaken. Emile. #7

This poem is from September 2016, apart from the collab poem with White Wolf, today is not the day for new poems for me :) But yes, Lisa, alive and won...
