We Shall Go On

Road to Conviction
Lips kissed so tender
hands held to heart
My mind racing

Oh how did I get here?
I answered and let you in
You spoke and I trembled
Sweet thereafter come near

Color so rampant 
Across my vision 
Invades this space
Heart so free

Race to the meadow
Green and fresh
Sweet smell lingers
My thoughts as pixels

Paint the canvas
unclear blue and red
wildly thrust
upon my breast

I will recall
As charming ladies do
The feeling and longing
We shall go on

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
