When we hold on to a painful memory
We never truly allow our hearts to be free
I ventured forth to open yesterday's door
Yet, fearful of the pain, I'd feel once more
As if in a trance, I reached for the doorknob
Whilst my heart shuddered back, a painful sob
I flung the door quickly, until it was opened wide
I tried not to look. Oh, how I wanted to hide!
Here, I stood in front of Yesterday's door
Like a weary ship, abandoned and wrecked
upon a rocky shore
I didn't want to look and I didn't want to see
But deep down inside, Oh, how I yearned to be Free!
I opened my eyes ever so slowly, but to a great surprise
A promise of a New Dawn....Love's New Sunrise
I basked in the warmth of its wondrous glow
With a revelation, to which I now....Know
The truth about LOVE is quite simple and plain,
LOVE, in its true essence....is never in vain.
*Revised
Poetry, like Music and Art... is the language of the Soul. It is within this respect,that it has allowed me to write from the depths of my mind,heart and soul. These poems are reflections of the innate strength, fragility and unquestionable foibles of human nature and the life experiences that help shape it. Expressions and Reflections of a journey to observing, contemplating, but above all... Living, Loving and Learning...about this interesting yet often times, crazy thing, we call...LIFE.
