To My Own Self I Am True

Out of the blue, My thoughts drifted to you. Beautiful, intelligent lover - Two dreams feeling, hoping, and laughing together. Gazing at stars our fantasies sing forever. Finding you gave my fear its egress. Warmth embraced in fullness. Loves caress. Two souls revive, renew. Our first kiss energizing, Greeting morning dew, Bringing, a fullness of joy, Mesmerizing all we are. At last, to my own self I am true. Without hesitation, we became one. Because you shine like the morning sun, I freely gave my heart to you. My life no longer a crazy zoo, No more distractions by God-less fun. At last, to my own self I am true. Without hesitation, we became one. Quickly, life’s problems said adieu. Mysterious joy materializing Happiness knew my heart’s enlarging. Splendidly, I found great love in you. At last, to my own self I am true. © November 2, 2010 Dane Smith-Johnsen
