Poetry: I Feel You as Soft Touches

I Feel You as Soft Touches

I want to see the thoughts

you breathe,

hear your words and collect them,

cradled in your honesty.

I could watch the beauty in your eyes

for eternity

without ever wishing

to walk away.

You give me your hand

and I close my eyes,

hear the whisper of the sea

and I remember how my heart

has searched for one

such as you

knowing I have found my home.

My love,

the world could dance

on the shells of their falsehoods

with words

written in beautiful calligraphy

and your words

would continue to run in my veins

like Morse code

tapping out who I am

to me.

You fill my hope chest with your spirit

lifting my head

from the table of where my mind wanders

when I forget

to stop and smell the roses along the way.

Your words

bring precious harmony

into play.

I look through the window of my heart

where you

have pressed your lips

on a photograph of your words

and I feel you as soft touches

on my soul.

I collect them one by one

to remember,

until you again I hold.
