Locked in Silence

When we refuse to to gaze through the

window of the heart and deny our soul,

only then do we complicate what

was always the simplicity of life.

~

There is no comparison between my

wants and needs as they are identical.

~

I need you like the gardens need the rain

and I want you like the waves

which hug the shore.

~

When I think of life without you,

I feel an emptiness that toys with my heart.

~

What is crazy is not the silly things

we do for one and other,

it's all that we have

not yet chanced

to do.

~

As much as I would like to be selfish

at the moment and journey into your arms,

I know I must correct the wrongs so that

love may flourish like a field of wild daisy.

~

We cannot survive in the air of negativity,

therefore we must remove it.

~

There is a silence that dwells even though the rain

falls to the earth through the restless storms.

~

The tightness that I feel in my chest

is due to the hunger for your love.
