A Sleight Of Word

Missing image
A sleight of word
charmed to those who touch
deep...
An unburdened fire
within the soul
forever yearning to reach
those emotions,
Can you teach those unanswered questions ?
Can you rise my passions
forever met in my heart ?

Charmed sleight words touch deep
writhing the souls of those;
Forever yearning in the chasm of emotions
forever reaching...
toward those unanswered questions,
Can you...
           teach me ?
Can you reach into my heart ?
Will you meet me there,
Where our passions will forever rise ?

And in the time
forever met
we'll celebrate chasms
of those emotions forgotten,
Only to remember
what some have yet to learn,
Listen...
Do you hear those whispers
that touch only
what some yearn to feel ?

    Passionate

    I enjoyed this, but the second line of the second verse, was a bit perplexed over the word 'withing', I read it a writhing, which worked but may have been wrong on my part.

    'an unburdened fire within the soul', what a lovely, passionate, free image in so few words, the whole poem is lovely, but that phrase really sets the scene - powerful stuff!
