Measures

Teddy.15

 

And, because of the
very measure of my love
I cannot put you down
nor can I bring you up
we are simply left in limbo 
a balloon you are not 
If I was born to love you
I will die loving you 
alas, from near or far 
when the wind blows north
my heart will blow onto yours 
and I may just float, perhaps?

    A lovely poem

    • Teddy.15

      I write my poems then find the art, thank you 💕

    • sorenbarrett

      Carefully worded this poem speaks the truth in deep wisdom. Our love takes us up and down not the one loved. It is such a great metaphor the balloon. Love we do float on in its ups and downs. Wonderfully brilliant!

        So very kind, dearest sorrenbarret you know I'm speaking of my most beloved darling of all right? London but yes also your way so very wonderful you know my work so well. I'm always truly humbled 💜

        Love that floaty feeling. And when there is art out there that exudes the same feeling there is a sense of unity in the cosmos. 👍🏻🙏🏻🕊
