Taken Slowly

Taken Slowly

 

 

We have met before through a vale of words.

No not in person but through an exchange of poems.

 

I met your passion, fears, and desires as you have met mine.

Through the ink of your words I grew to care for you, but could never say what I was afraid to show.

 

Through your poems I met your heart,

and knew without hesitation your were the Angel in my life.

 

I don’t pretend you love me, for that would presume to much.

I know your heart is not mine to have, but your words I sleep with every night.

(I hope you do not mind).

 

This is enough for me, for I do not have the right to ask for more.

It is enough that you have...

Taken me slowly.

Sigh... I am sitting here feeling like I am in heaven. This is simply divine, what more can one say when has been taken to heaven and put on cloud 9? ;-)

Thank you Sye. I think in a way this is for all those who have encouraged me. But it is more for the poet who I am afraid to tell it is for.

[s y e]

Why should you be afraid?

[ron]

Because she is very innocent, and I would hurt her with my heart.

[s y e]

Awh, I doubt you would hurt her. You couldn't hurt a fly, aha.
Except when the ant's give you hickeys, bahahaha

[ron]

Lol thank you Sye.

A sweet sentiment ron...does said poet know this is intended for them? We are truly affected by other's words, anyone would love to know they had that kind of effect.

'knew without hesitation your where the Angel in my life.' think you meant 'you were'

[ron]

No...said poet I'm sure does not know. Thank you I will change it.

[Frieda P]

Welcome, I guess you're keeping it a secret then...was m pleasure.

[ron]

For now until I tell her, but it is enough for me for now.

[Frieda P]

I understand....

[ron]

Besides what if...well it doesn't matter in the long run.

[Vidya Bacchus]

This is so very sweet. I think someone would love to know you feel this way about her.

[ron]

Thank you Vidya. I think she would think I was not serious if I told her, so for now she must think I am just another admirer of hers.

[Vidya Bacchus]

Well perhaps after she reads your sweet words she would believe you.Who knows ?

[ron]

Maybe.....

[Madalyn Beck]

Beautiful poem here! I love how you captured the power she has over you and how over time, you grew to love her. Great write! :)

[ron]

Thank you Madalyn :)
