With loving eyes,
I seek to soften your layers;
knowing only whispers
can seep inside those walls,
finding your face
with tender traces;
these fingertips
awakening the length of you
with petaled kisses
and falling silk of these tresses.
My heart knew yours
before our first gaze
when my flutter found solace
within your aching dreams.
♥♥

the word solace best describes the feeling of this
seep inside those walls,
this line is exactly how tenderness begins and ends
just as good as cold chills from Etta James
and yes
that is the highest of compliments
love this
best wishes
a winner through and through
peace and hugs

Very nice. Its so true how only the soft, the quiet, and tender can break through some walls. I think it is perfect that you say you found solace in his "aching dreams." Those who have walls can still dream, even if that's all they can allow themselves to do. This is so soft and perfect.
