Somewhere

Our souls have met like this before...
It is a familiar embrace of warm belonging
Our hands fold together 
Like a prophecy coming to pass
Like the moon completing its dance
Accepting the smiling sun...


I kiss away your heartache 
You kiss away my fears
Trusting what love we create
In every web we complete
Shiny dew to show that it is new 
From the graves of adversity
We rise as one
We kiss as one 
Laughing away the day
Loving away the night


Welcoming more rain to caress our souls again
I shall never hold anyone as I hold you
Your warm body melts into my surety 
Crushing away doubts and sorrows
We know that there is before us
A new road to wander
Another kiss to anticipate
More lives to live
More places to call our own


Because there is always somewhere
When that somewhere is with you
When that somewhere surpasses home
And returns like the dew

This is a very different tone for you - refreshingly joyful. Who cares the location when the company is with the one you love. My favorite bits were the "prophecy coming to pass" phrasing and the subtle nod to the spiders in the middle you so adore :)

I am enraptured by the beautiful essence of your passionate poem, Laura. Your first line captivated my heart and imagination and held them in awe till the soul-baring finale of your last stanza. Such an intimate piece. 'When that somewhere surpasses home' - Wow! Your poetry is always deeply moving. Warmest wishes always.. ~Susan
