Shadows creep, darkness crawls,
Across my cheek, into my all.
The sour words you speak,
Makes any mans knees weak.
And light restores the all.
Emotion lost, emotion found.
My fingers crossed.
May luck abound.
Tell me softly thy love,
As winter blinds a fiery cave.
And caress my selfless mind,
Where hindsight rewinds.
For the love of you I linger,
As pain with you a stranger.

So beautiful write,
It touched my heart
Thank you
You are very welcome.
The first two lines, to me reflect aging and the passage of time. So well worded and imaged. The second stanza forgiveness and hope, while the third reveals how love blinds one to passion of the past. The last two lines are ambiguous depending on how the reader takes the earlier stanzas. It may be that continued loss is the pain that lingers with patience in the form of love awaits to change or more positively a persistent and undying love awaits the inevitable reunion with what is still a stranger and is willing to suffer the ongoing pain of separation until such a time. A fave
Thank you Sorenbarrett
My pleasure
Beautiful
