SIMPLICITY

I am simplicity:

Attainable but unattachable; and you would want to go a ‘courting still?

I’m here at your bequest and you would want the rest?

To lie in clover and feel a certain fear, just to roll over and find that you’re near;

Such little things for I am small fill me up enormous awe.

Such are my moments with you, like volumes at night read by candle light.

I’ve known many men but none like you.

Are you a man, or a gift to me from heaven?

The men I’ve touched have grabbed at me while you touch back.;

To touch is to know as the blind will tell us.

I love you.

Those awful words once spoken, weren’t meant to beg you stay         or bind you with unseen shackles

like the birds in flight unbroken.

Should life lead you to a road to find yourself apart from me - fine

For true love is boundless and forever goes.

You and I with a kiss good-bye threw a pebble in the lake.

Do you think we'll ever count all the rings that it will make?

And where it finally ends, no one knows;

For true love is boundless and forever flows.

So, when you find the time is nigh to give me that kiss good bye’

I will turn to watch you go, but in my heart I’ll say hello.
