This is my Place to Stay

You came in the calm.
Pages of weary, cages of fury;
All you wanted was to have some fun.

You framed maelstrom.
Boughs of conflict, avowed to constrict.
Your presence had me caught in siphon.

How could I miss,
The hints of depth, the dints in breath?
All I could do was cling blindly in the wind.

Then came the kiss.
You cracked the calm, slapped down the bomb.
You set my world in a spin.

And now we’re here,
No where to turn, the tears all burnt.
My heart all yours to harm, to take.

But then you shook me with your care,
A gentle touch, a vestal brush.
Sweet, painful love induced with every word you spake.

Too late to be afraid.
Push on forward, debouch still toward
The final words our hearts yearn to say.

My soul is irrevocably staid.
There’s nothing to fear, the beating you hear
Are frantic words my heart yearns to convey.

“…I love you...”
See from my eyes, hear from my sighs
The truth, the pain, the reality.

No such thing as too soon to construe,
You shook my core and took the door
That led you to my frailty.

I’m here to stay.
Can’t nudge me away, shan’t push me astray,
My hearts is yours to save.

I thank God to this day,
He sent an angel, who wrent the hoyle
And set me free to pave

The place for me to stay.
Here in your arms, clear view of stars,
This is my place to stay.

-Harrison Chu

    Oh. This is a very interesting poem that you have here. I thought it started out kind of dark and sad but then it lightened up as you started talking about this person and what they came to mean to you. I think that it's so wonderful when people find someone to love who loves them back just as much. There's just not enought of that in the world. I thought you did a good job of expressing yourself here.
