Deb Wilson Poet Rhyme

Set You Free My Love

I'm lonely for your love in blackest night
I call your name but you are nowhere near
The horizon that carries you's in sight
Yet distance that's between us causes fear

Nothing will keep out the burning rain
A cloud of doubt has come to capture me
I'm preparing to accept some pain
And drown within a sea of misery

This wine is bitter flowing from my glass
The taste of darkness,not the sweet I crave
Traveling a burdened mountain pass
Losing choices,becoming a slave

Your love is sustenance for me it's true
But I'm not sure of what you're showing me
Why do you bring me this dark shade of blue
Perhaps it's time for me to set you free

Carolyn Devonshire March 27, 2011 at 11:22 AM When love causes pain and makes you feel like a slave, it's often best to set yourself free of the misery. Don't drown in that sea -- there are other fish. Some are angel fish and they'll never make you feel this way. This is beautifully written, Deb. Love, Carolyn
