As this past week came to an end. I sat
down to write about it for my blog. About the third paragraph in, I felt
writing a summary or memoir type passage did not feel right. I decided the only
way, the only true way to share how I felt this week with any reader who comes
across this, is through a poem.
This will be the first poem I post on the
internet. Normally my poems are handwritten in notebooks or sketchbooks. Not
that I am embarrassed, but poetry has always been my first creative outlet long
before sharing thoughts via blogs, or Twitter became another.
So today I have decided to combine the
two. Thank you for letting me share, and thank you for reading.
Through
Your Eyes
your warmth swallows me whole
my soul is set on fire with the light of
your love
floating through the darkness of what I
believe to be my biggest fears
as each wave of doubt and worry crashes on
me,
I lift up my hand towards the sky
and I feel your fingers intertwine with
mine,
and you pull me out of the empty ocean and
into your arms
I know it was all a dream
because when I look at you,
I see myself as you do
with love
