COME BE WITH ME
In the years that we have know each other
never before have I asked anything of you.
However, I feel that now is the time.
I have watched you
seen your pain.
I think that I can help.
So I ask this of you:
Come walk with me.
Side by side
along unexplored seashores.
Come share with me
memories of a lonely childhood,
of lost loves, of choices made
and then regretted.
Let us sit
arm in arm
watching as the moon
dances enchantingly along the moonlit sky.
let us touch
this one time
our cascading emotions
igniting passions
kept silent by duty.
Let me show you
that I…
and only I
can show you what love is.
Others have tried you cry out
your voice weeping in its loneliness.
What can you offer that they could not?
Love I whisper gently cradling your broken heart
within my hands.
It is
that my heart knows you…
My Soul
accepts you…
My arms
want you.
And I…
I need you.

A fantastic poem with a lot of beautiful emotion for someone suffering so much distress and despair. I love how you set this out and how it flowed right to the end like a very short story. I am impressed by your wonderful poetry, Trekkergirl.
