You are the song my heart sings….dedicated to Cloud

My heart is so young

Image via Wikipedia

My heart is overflowing 

because I have never used

up all the love

from the last  hundred  lifetimes.

I have not given back

to life anywhere near enough

of the beauty it has given  to me.

I have tried to learn to do that.

I have tried to learn to give love that deeply.

I have instead protected all those I love.

There is not anyone

(not a mortal anyway)

who would understand

The depth, the heighth 

 and the breadth of the  I love I know. 

I have not ever given

completely of my self to one person.

I give all of myself to you

my beloved in my every:

thought I think

every dish I wash

every song I write

is written to you

….only you.

You are the colours

of my paintings.

The ink in my pen…

while I write

a poem of praise

to you one more time. 

I am waiting to meet you.

I know that you exist.

I catch glimpses

of  you in the moonlight.

I see you every

morning in the dawn.

I just thought

I would tell you I am still alive.

I am not waiting

for you any longer.

I practice your presence

 in every breath I breathe….

It is all for you  love. 

You are the song I sing.
