Love Through The Pages

Clara

 

I write my words for you
Evidence our time
A brief spell in otherwise mundane
Keeping you alive

 

In the darkest of hours
My words breathe true
I can almost taste the sunshine of you
Then comes the break of day
And I question the reality of you

 

Through my words our love lives on
Your pulse beats through my pages
Just like it did my skin... Oh
How I'm able to capture the essence of you
Though now I don't know what's true

 

I may have romanticised you
Glamorised your distance
The way I was held at arms length
You say my tears became nectar

 

Nevertheless, it's all I have of you
My lover through the pages
Since our love
Will never be one for the ages.

                'Through my words
                our love lives on Your pulse
                beats through my pages, Just
                like it did my skin'
                so talented at emoting the core essence of those same feelings you're invoking from your readers,
                a wonderful write as testament to the fact that even when shattered - love's remnants, can transcend: to plant roots of comfort

                • Clara

                  Thank you so much for your kind words! I really appreciate it them. Your ending sentence... Plant roots of comfort. Wow, indeed. Reading that actually spoke to me on a deeper level. Correct you are. It is comforting. Thank you again.

                  Finely worded to leave me thinking of love desired and love remembered. Nice work.
