you read my sad, accept my lows
you take me high, make me slow
my mind
and time, our time stands still
can you imagine how high we can go
or will it die all that we know we are
before we begin
it happens once
sometimes never, for some
and when it does
let it be
let it flow
take the beauty, take the love, the passion
let it fortify
a journey, sometimes sad
fraught with turmoil
take the love
it’s meant for you
it’s all I have
it’s all I am
all I want to be
one, when I’m with you
place your head upon my lap
let me love you
let me take away your worries, allow me in
there is no wrong, no shame, no blame
love is all there is
across time and space
we’ve got the gift the world is waiting for
embrace the moments, take the high
let it fill your heart
and in your dark hours
when you are alone
fighting for a world
that disappoints and hurts your heart
remember me
wherever I am, remember my love
the gift you gave me
the time we allowed our love to thrive, alive
beyond age and time
beyond reason and sanity
we basked in its joy and purity
and we loved each other
until time
until infinity
and if you need to leave me
I will let you go

Lynda, you are an exception in the literary universe, truly. You express with a connection to heart and soul that so few have in this day. The read is profound, moving, deeply engaging and I find myself drawn into something that fully takes me back and moves me forward with a thought process that is so rare today. We live within the words, take it all deep into our pores and bask in its tender, knowing moments; beautiful. Thank you for this and so much more.
Your old friend across the miles. Hugs.

Ah, you’re very kind Don. I’d gotten away from poetry but in the last few weeks started writing it again. It’s always been like journaling for me… I was thinking of you also. Big changes at Amazon, the entire KindleWorlds going away so busy rewriting and I have a new bad-ass heroine Samaar- code named LUCI. I’d forgotten how much fun it is to read that series. So 5 novellas, 1 prequel and a 6th will be a book. Super busy. Hope you are well and that your life is beautiful.
