First Valentine's Day

by Scrittore   Feb 11, 2009


For most, words are too hard to rhyme
Juxtaposed in a sentence in a given time
I compose these structures to open my soul
And share it to an unassuming world
I have written on the sorrows of life
Bled out my heart in ink on strife
Uncovered my wounds and longing desires
Wrote of un-existing love and burned out fires
I've discovered more of myself with pen in hand
Than with years of talking or thinking on demand
It is intimate in a way that no one can ever know
And it is one thing I cannot share or show
To anyone closer to me than a distant stranger
For fear of vulnerability, putting myself in danger
Only one reads what my heart truly speaks
He is the man that still makes me weak
With just a small moment when our eyes locks
Every moment spent together is still a shock
For he accepts all of me even my worst flaws
When I'm am unaware he understands the cause
Honestly he knows me better than anyone I ever met
Though I feel no fear from it, he is of no threat
There is a trust that burns deep within
From our first Autumn that is how it's been
From that moment too I've been lost in hazel eyes
Dreading any and every simple short goodbye
And he can never sense the pain of our last embrace
Nor will he believe that he can never be replaced
Yet I know with all my heart that he is one of a kind
With a rich heart, humble soul and brilliant mind
There are too many words I cannot bring myself to say
A reserved heart is rather difficult to put on display
With unspoken words I stare into his eyes and smile
In pleasure or in pain he will always be worthwhile
And I will wait and eternity if we were to ever part
Because I have given him my entire heart
There is just one thing left that I have to say
Happy First Valentine's Day
