My Light

...You are the light that shines...this is for you :)

 

 

 

My Light

 

I want you to wrap yourself around me

I want to feel your warmth,

Your love, your heart…

 

I love you, but I cannot say these words,

Though I have, over and over again,

In my mind and in my heart…

 

Others cannot know what I feel,

They will never understand,

They cannot know the truth…

 

You are my saving grace,

The one that keeps me strong,

In a life that is never fair...

 

You are the light that shines,

Ever so brightly upon my soul,

Despite any adversity that may come…

 

Please understand.

That I will always love you,

No matter what has been written in time…

I want to wrap yourself around me-love the intent of that line, but for me, it doesn't work using "yourself". I want to wrap you around me-makes more sense to me, but maybe that is just me. This is a sweet love poem. I enjoyed reading.

What a beautiful expression of love .. flowing and gentle, sincere and warm

'I love you, but I cannot say these words, / Though I have, over and over again, / In my mind and in my heart�'

Thank you for sharing such a delightfully written poem.

I like the sense of doubt that takes place, despite all the heartbreak. No love is simply, that's for sure!

Urgent and direct not one word wasted. Wld 'Please understand' be better as 'Please know' ?

[With Each Raindrop Come..]

these poems are incredible Amanda! I am actually speechless as to what to say to them! GREAT WORK!

[THE LOST ROSE]

I voice the same opinion as everyone else Amanda, this is very nice and heartfelt. Poetry that speaks of every angle of love just oozes out of you. I wish you well in your quest to find the happioness you deserve. I look forward to catching up to your work when I return. See you in April.
