    Just Listen

    My every thought humbles my spirit . My mind takes over the words I tend to speak. Like an animal in the wild, my heart leaps out at the first sign of affection. To hold back is false and insecure. But what if it fails? Do I go on, do I change direction or pretend it's not there?


    It burns my heart not to have all I want, and my mind seems not to disagree, but tells it not to fear or walk away. The reciprocation is strong and will not lie. It will remain as long as it is wanted

    This is beautiful. Let your desire burn and flame: better to see the world through desire's light.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.
