As I rush into your open arms,
collapsing in relief,
hold me to your happy heart
let not this time be brief.
We'll move in perfect motion
rocking gently to the sway,
as I trust you as you trust me
I will not give us away.
Cradle me within your heart
as if a newborn soul -
softy, with a quiet kiss
complete me - I am whole.
Stay with me to watch the night,
don't give in to sleep -
out in darkened seas of sky,
we're stars within the deep.
Come the dawn and brighter beams
we'll rest, as shadows harden -
I commit this crime of love
and you will always pardon.

I always find sharing poetry very brave because often it tells so much of the author.
I wanted to stop by, as I have been doing with a few people, to thank you for your kindness on my drinking-weepy-complaining entry :-0. I very much appreciated your words of wisdom.

This poem, for me, stood out from all the rest, and brought a gentle warmth to my heart. Love like this is RARE - it seldom happens in one's lifetime unless they are blessed by God. Whoever this may be, they must be extremely special - You are one lucky lady, Cathy - and your words, once again, beautifully made your feelings come alive! Better hang on to this one, Cath! ;)
Very good.
