To My Significant Lover

by Gregg Rowe

~~~~~

Shine in my blue eyes, shine in my gold heart
Embrace me within your muscular arms
Please do not crush me, nor tear me apart
Keep me safely and keep me from life’s harm

I am so fragile and I am so weak
I have not been strong these last couple days
I am to remain silent, not to speak
As mortality has its human way.

Everyone needs to have at least one person in their life that makes them feel safe and secure. I love your plea, well done Gregg.

I like the piece, filled with good emotion, and diction, Your choice of words is very good. Nice write, though you might want to change the title...

This is a really beautiful piece, especially the last lines:
"I am to remain silent, not to speak
As mortality has its human way."

Human kind, feeling it's way
among the stars and moon
awakened each day
with a sunrise to bring heart
& soul, to all
who find themselves lost at times
Time to smile
To belong,again
Time will heal
and shed it's love each day

Nicely done Gregg
Glad to see you finding your way
