  • Been on a hiatus for awhile, but I'm back and have the itch to write some poetry.

Close Your Eyes and Leap

I stand here holding heart in hand
and hear your passion plea
unsure of what intentions meant
and too afraid to speak
I could be your shelter in the storm
and you could sure be mine
and we could mend our broken hearts
with the two of them combined
but is that what you really want
someone you hardly know
aren't you just a stunted rose
who needs a place to grow
I would surely wipe your tears
but the distance is too great
is the fact we met coincidence
or is it purely fate
was it God who led us here
to mend our broken hearts
to give us one more chance to love
and have a brand new start
I'm afraid that I won't measure up
to the visions in your head
but know that I have surely meant
every word in which I've said
but isn't it more complicated
than we make it out to be
you still have some things to do
and you have a family
I could be the one
to ease you of your pain
so let these words break down your door
and free you of your chains
it's for sure an uphill climb
but the mountains not that steep
the only thing we gotta do
is close our eyes and leap

I can't compare yet I can take advice this poem flows originally and your rhyme in this poem is unique and special.

I am speechless. .............................................................really.......you are beautiful.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
