~ CAPTIVE ~

I wrote this poem for my loving husband Larry. I had always desired to share my life with that special someone and be happy. Just as I had come to think that perhaps that was not to be what my life would hold, I met Larry and in very short order everything changed. Although initially I actually tried to resist that affection, his loving tenderness was more than I could withstand. Larry is my best friend and I treasure every moment we share together. 


                                  In moments past
                                    Peace found uncertain,
                                        Wandering thoughts
                                            Of what would be

                                 You came along
                                    And pulled back the curtain
                                          An exciting rush
                                               Of uncertain possibility

                                 In your gaze
                                           I found myself lost
                                        So far in a sea of blue

                                 Your voice for me
                                           Like a piercing arrow
                                                Drawing me captive to you
                                      

                         My mind could not stop rushing
                                          I thought,
                         " From this man I must flee”

                                  My secret beating heart discovered
                                           With your hand upon my chest,
                                                          You see….

                                  I thought…
                                        I don'’t know what is happening,
                                                Tell me…

                                  ~ Is it forever or for a day? ~

                                  Finding myself lost in you,
                                      A captive of your gaze
                                           Oh love from you, I can not turn
                                                 No I could not turn away”


                                  Everyday...

                                     Fom then, till now
                                              Has grown steadily

                                                       ~~ yes still more ~~


                                      Your eyes,
                                                Your touch,
                                                          Your voice,
                                                                   Your breath…..


                                      My love,

                                                My dear,

                                                                                                             “ I’m yours…..”
