Amid "Love" and "In Love"

Share my heart
    let it beat as your own.
Feel the love
    your wounded soul to surround.

Rain on me your tears
like broken strand of pearls.

I am the one
    in which you can hide
all the fears
    you battle with inside.

Give to me your darkness
I'll give to you my light.

Leave behind
    the memories of sorrow
that restrain
    the freedom of tomorrow.

Our paths might lead to seperate ways,
but I will never leave you.

      lullaby, 'deep' to say the least. I was born on the same day as Rodin and model my life after his statue, The Thinker for obviousl reason

      Laura, too many broken hearts makes most of us too cautious and so we miss out on the love being given. As for the one in this verse, we know that above all we are friends and if God chooses, we sahll become more

      Kiera, this poem is to friend who, like me, wants to "in love' but has been recently hurt and is afraid to trust again

      Dusty, I rarely speak from my heart on these pages but this time I couldn't hold back. Now I wonder if I've said too much???

    This is definitely one of the better ones I have read of yours ... it is simple and yet extremely profound - I truly enjoyed this one immensely! There is a definite line between loving somebody and being in love with somebody and I think u have captured both aspects here ...
    Can't really choose one specific part of this poem that I preferred to the rest - every stanza is really good - BRAVO - I loved this one!

      s-pet, you have gotten the complete picture from this write--the reality is that the timing here is not the best so I have to try my best to be patient and let her make the next move

      bergetti, this is what one feels and gives to another to illustrate there could be more to share if the timeing is right and eqaully shared

    Beautiful write. I liked the part of darkness and light the best. What a beautiful concept of giving light to someone's darkness, almost like giving someone hope who feels like there may be no hope left in their world. Good luck in the contest.

      Arzab, 'people so seldomly say, "I love you" that love dies or it soon goes'> Being in love right now would be bad timing on my part, but what I feel is very strong

      Terry, as you know with me it's more about the message than the trophy. And, I like this side of me, too. It's closer to the truth of who I really am

      Crystal, this a time where I feel something much stronger than friendship but cannot say "I love you" There is love but the "in" part, I too fear
