the undying bond

you left with the wind

at your back

and weeping

was my reward.

my heart went silent,

as the familiar sound 

it once gave,

was shocked to notice

you weren't near 

to comfort 

it's agonizing feat.

the nights,days and years

went strolling along

at snail speed.

your memory

whispered to me, 

riding the cool night breeze,

and i wondered 

if you remembered 

our moments 

in time.

my answer came

when you strolled back

into my past,

carrying the anger,

tears

and joy 

that only you bring.

the emptiness in my chest

was replaced 

with a rock solid skip

that shook my foundation.
the heart requires love at any cost
but the mind is there to temper 
that impatience.

i had learned to function

without you.

but now the confrontation

was at hand.

we owed it to ourselves

to question cupid's

cruel conundrum.

take hold of my sanity

and be gentle 

with my soul.

kiss me 

softly on the neck

and lay your head

in that familiar spot,

while we dance 

down the road 

of the essence of faith.
