Speaks Softly

Tuesday, June 7, 2022


Your heart speaks softly

As it consoles

Its cadence a comfort

A place to rest

My face nestled

Upon your chest 

I’ve never felt more alive

Blanketed by the warmth

Of your tender skin 

Together under mountains 

Of downy white

Breathing peacefully

On this coldest of winters night

Embers crackle as though to say

Their flame will burn 

Long after the break of day

How I too, wish

To remain, 

Here, within this loving cocoon

Held tightly while awaiting 

The golden rays of dawn

But all too soon

Dreams fade away

A love once lived

A dying flame

A gust of wind

A melted snow

Everything has

Its time to go
