In Words

The words
Are there
In the air
Around you
In which
You breath
That which
You give
In return

The feelings
Are there
Like the blood
Within you
Skin deep
And protected
So often
Are taken
Not reflected

The passion
Is there
In the actions
Guiding you
Wide eyed
Undestructed view
Child's innocence
Holds truth

The pain
Shows through
As the stars
Through night
Novice astrologer
Misguided light
Fallen star
Poet writes

Thy love
Holds true
Only to you
Always aspiring
With patience
Never satiated
I love you
Words understated
