Whispers Of My Soul

If you sing to those who listen
My heart awaits your song
For I've been humbled daily in
Your grace, where lovers long


Harmony, is the whispers of
A hymn we all could share
Many believe, a God of love
Would've made life fair


I look not to the human race
For I see myself as flawed
Though I fail, I seek this place
Where love still conquers all


The shelter of my heart is yours
For what I have, I try to give
A memory, a thought, upon seashores
The tears, I share, the dreams I live


I only know the road of my soul
As I've felt the storm of the sea
I pray to the sky, here down below
For love unconditionally

    Unconditional love is the only love worth having! Anything lesser of it's kind is merely a waste of energy. The flow and rhythm of this piece is pristinely penned and the images that you have to offer are a vow from the center corridor of your soul.

    It's a real treat to get to read this, thank you.

    words cannot explain the beauty

    wow. i wish there were more words in the english language to describe this poem. it was beautiful and sad and hopefull all at the same time. it was one of the best depictions of love that i have ever encountered, it went beyond the traditional sappy hallmark cards and discovered the real roots of love. it was beautiful and flowed like the sea. amazing.

    very well said.
    i try very hard to believe and strive to love unconditionally. i know i'm flawed too and much too hard on myself for it.
    i appreciate the feeling of serenity this poem gives me.

    Excellent! A pleasure to read!

    The world needs more like you
    who feel the way you do.
    The love you give is free,
    I give it back unconditionally.


    Beautiful poem, Timothy!

    Beautiful!

    An excellent piece! Your faith is inspiring and words are captivating. A great write...Whispers of the soul, if aptly captured on paper can always create masterpieces and this one does!

    BTW, God of Love does exist. He's only too busy with his own love stories to pay heed to anyone else.

    Great work!

    Excellent!

    A work that reaches the heart, that reminds us that there is more to life than what we see outwardly; that the world can be a place "where love still conquers all." There is power in this poem, and it is written exceptionally well. The love expressed on your page for your son, and his love for you, is inspiring and touching.

    "The shelter of my heart is yours
    For what I have, I try to give
    A memory, a thought, upon seashores
    The tears, I share, the dreams I live"

    And you share so selflessly, so beautifully through your words! You have the gift, Poet! Write on!

    love and huggles

    huh? this was pretty dope, I dislike the concept of god though for I despise him as I do: Santa Clawz, Easter bunny and the tooth fairy. Childhood memories, cliched trendy lies to keep the kids in line. umm, It's just not right to lie to your kid all his life. *Cough* anyways, I'm rambling, I liked the 4 line stanza's, to me whether I read it too fast or too slow, whichever way I read it seem to be the perfect speed. It was sewn together with stitches meant to never be severed. Tight Write.
