I Will Wait

You wept as you told me

Of your feelings

Causing me to nearly weep myself

You spoke of others

Who would take your place

I have considered others

As you asked

I am repulsed

By the thought

Today is not our time

Perhaps in a series of tomorrows

Our time will come

I will wait

Even if it should be

Five Years

Ten Years

Fifty Years

You and I have met

In many lives past

And always have you brought

My soul back on the right path

Do not distress yourself with

Thoughts of others

My heart is and always was

Irrevocably

Yours

this love - this is the deepest red - and the deepest love - its not easy - because its so real - its so present and so consuming - its not a love tainted by the hue of roses - its a love colored with the shades of living a love - of the tough times and the rough edges - this - you're right - is the best kind of love - the kind of love that doesn't come easy - the kind of love that deepens - exponentially - with every day and the dark nights - this is the love - that burns bright - when all else - ceases to be!

This is emotionally deep seeded work, I love it..

Thank You, Michael :) It is actually a love poem :) I wrote with a someone in mind :) But that someone has actually , I am convinced, developed me spiritually and brought me out of the darkness, so I suppose it has that tinge :)
Thank You...thank You for Your kind words and for reviewing it :)

this is amazing, speaks more spiritually than romantically imo, and doesn't
strike me as love more than it strikes me as a testiment to a God or the like
but the brilliance is the way you express the words like a love poem,
so on the surface it seems like grand love, down deep it feels like a
dedication to your beliefs in a higher power or the like.
in all regards I think its an amazingly passionate and well worded poem.
you are a really good poet. thanks for sharing such great work :)

:) Oh Emily..thank You for sharing that with us :) I hope that we both wait but I submit my will to the will of God
Thank You,dear Serah :) You too always say lovely poetic things...:) Yes..Love..is something..unforgettable...especially when true..and I think perhaps it is the very basis of our existence :)

oh, so beautiful

I've been having a conversation lately with a man who was that to me so many years ago. He thought I should have waited. I thought he should have. He still feels a place, my heart moves when I see him smile.

[A.A.Romanczuk]

[A.A.Romanczuk]
