Poem Commentary

This poem is about two necklaces that my girlfriend and I have. One is a key, the other is a heart. The necklaces where hers. She wears the one with the heart and a key shaped hole in it. While, I wear the key. I love you Becky.

I Have the Key to Your Heart

As my heart beats
I feel your necklace
the one you gave to me
against my warm skin
its coldness
wakens me
makes me feel
how I know I do
alive
your necklace makes me feel
as if I belong
and I know that I do

As my breathe leaves me
I know I'll take one more
for the key to your heart
is upon my chest
and it shall not be lost
within the ground

As my feet hit the ground
my fingers are touching
what is most important to me
the one thing that will get me through the day
the necklace
the key
to the heart around your neck
and in your chest

and i finger it
quietly
desperately
in the dark

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