When the Heart Is Open

When the heart is open And truth is in the eye The mind depletes emotion's grip Seeking reasons why Thinking now of only you Remembering good and bad Knowing that you felt the love I gave you all I had When all years have blossomed An the future is but a light When laying still, almost in dream Facing a dark long night When, oh when, try to recall The time and place, the feel Never say if only I, could make this again, real It was good, it was very good As I lay upon warm earth The path, the road, the way I chose Was it best...one never knows With shallow breathe and moisten eyes The flashes of life, pass by The only peace that comforting Is the infinite depth of the sky Guy McFarland Jennings 7/27/2015
