closer to me (MUSE 7)
There's a light dawning
it flitters free whenever I realise you're coming
closer to me
Something I cannot see
collides with the barriers I've set before me
rushes them time and again
This it what it means
when our paths have crossed over
my vision spills into your world
a little more as you move further into mine
I have struggled to resist
not recognise what's unfolding before me
but as I've thrown more distractions your way
you simply smile right through
It's familiar if distant this place we find ourselves
I've been here before and the memory is stained
the curtains once drawn
you've pulled them aside
one by one
let the light indoors
allowed it to frolic and run free
slowly awaken
that sleeping part of me
It isn't you that makes me withdraw
everytime our breaths are burning warm
only fear the future is based on trust
we've built a reciprocating repertoire
something not often seen
and to lose the picture that frames it all
how many times am I willing to fall ....
Chances die even while this one flourishes
perhaps is all I can say
as you place further quests upon my way
hope is what we commit to
with no telling where we'll end

Sometimes we have to take chances, and summon courage from the depths of ourselves in order to find something great! Embrace the future, we do have the power to make it whatever we wish. I like this poem very much. You are a very good writer…you probably already know that.
