Affirmation of Love

rita_ehn

 

You love me.

 

I carry your declaration freely

 

Travel with it down dark hallways

 

Let it pull back shades in darkened rooms

 

Blind my mind with its pervading light

 

Expose all dust.

 

I place it on the nearest shelf

 

Within arms’ reach

 

To be taken down often and read aloud

 

Words that will linger long after the last page is turned.

    Rita, what a beautiful and imaginative way to look at love. I do like the line "let it pull back shades in darkened rooms", conjuring up the image of letting love into your heart.
    You know, there are so many poems about love, and still there are new ways to express it. Great writing!
