Between Us, You and I



In the depths of your heart
Is there a trace of me?
And in my own heart
Is it love there you seek?

Many a man I’ve heard say
“It’s now or never”
But only a fool puts
Conditions on love forever

Upon entering my heart
You passed through a one-way door
Not an easy thing to do
To find my heart’s core

But you found your way there
Like it was meant to be
And within your heart’s core
Is where I long to be

I pray this is God’s will
That together we can satisfy
God’s most precious gift of love
Between us, you and I

DanceOfThePoet'sPen

Guess you could say I'm a self taught poet. I started writing poetry as a means of dealing with the emotions of finding my Birthmother's obituary and grave site after searching for 10 years. I continued writing and over the course of the last 20 years I've become comfortable in how I write. You'll notice I tend to write a lot about nostalgia and old memories. Hey, when you round the corner of 60 years, you start thinking a lot about the past and where you've been. One of my subjects I write about is love, but I try to write of other things too. I've lived on the south shore of Massachusetts for all of my 64 years. But I love all of New England. Aside from writing poetry, I also love photography and have quite a collection of old antique cameras. Baseball, football, muscle cars and car shows are also some of my interests. Not too crazy about Winter. Spring & Summer are my favorite seasons. more…
