I Love You

Vonita 14 Comments


I love you in darkness

I love you in light

I love you in daytime

And all through the night

I love you in winter

I love you in fall

I love you in summer 

And right through it all –

You are the one for me

You help my heart mend

I love you forever

I love you, my friend

enough

it wasn’t enough

that i had all i ever dreamed of

it wasn’t enough

that i had

a partner

a child

a home

it wasn’t enough

that i was always employed

always healthy

always having a place to go

it wasn’t enough

that i never had

one day of hunger

one night of cold

one day of heat

one night of wanting

one day of going without

the heart is always hungry

always wanting

always craving

always demanding

always seeking

always dreaming

always wishing

nothing was

nothing is

nothing ever will be

Enough.

When enough is never enough

When enough is never enough –

Endlessly caught up

Chasing dreams

Chasing winds

Chasing leaves falling

Off trees

Time slips past

Days follow dawns

Until one final long

Goodnight

An ‘I Love You’

My heart has ached 

My ears have strained 

My soul has watched 

My eyes have weeped

My spirit has prayed

For an ‘I Love You’

My heart still aches

My ears still strain

My soul keeps watch 

My eyes still weep

My spirit prays.

Changing my Mind

I used to think tenacity was good.

Now I think, it is not enough.

I used to think my courage would see me through.

Now I think, it is not enough.

I used to think I could do it all.

Now I ask, will I even start?

I used to think my life was worth my breath

Now I pray, help me survive this day.

I felt his shoulder beneath his shirt 

As he appeared before me 

And as he pleasured me 

I could feel his shoulder 

Beneath his shirt
