To Grow

Sit still, my heart
As I measure your capacity
Of love for her
You are unbounded
From the chains of loneliness
No longer dwell in sadness
You are set free
To love abundantly

And then …..

I feel the rate of my heartbeat ache
When I come into your presence
A wild fire burns through my chest
With every moment that hastens away
I feel
I’m beginning to lose control

You are my sanity
Taking away all vanity
When apart from you
I’m sad you see

My little flower
I will rain my love down to you
And grow by each hour

Time may stop
The world quit spinning
That will never quench
These things I’m feeling

And as the sailors of long ago
You are my bright star
That guides me home
-
Happy Valentines Day My Love Cecilia

  1. very lovely writings!

    please try to post a new poem tomorrow,

    From jingle

  2. Self Love? Hmmm, I never really thought about it before. I have always been a strong believer that directing love outwards towards others will reap love coming back to you inwards. (in other words, let Karma do it)
    If you try to direct the love inwards yourself, you reap sorrow and pain. (selfish and conceded)

    So if you want more love, give more love, don’t keep it to yourself.
