Eye of the heart

Gerald Lee

In the eye of the heart,
visions of beauty be-held.
While gazing upon you,
my fingers explore,
the lines sketching out your face.
I fall victim to peace,
as I take you into my deepest unlit rooms
where all wrongs turn away.
You needn't hide inner-self from me,
for you truely feel the way you seem.
Look upon me with your inner soul,
not just with naked eyes.
Deep within the eye of the heart,
is how true love flows.

Gerald Lee

My poetry has always been derived from life experiences. I have had six poems published in chap books; one of which was translated across Europe (Broken Arms), which has been my pride and joy! I am a Pagan practitioner officially since October 31, 2009, and have loved it deeply ever since. I have a male lover of 19 years March 1st, 1994 to whom I have been hand fasted. I never considered my poetry to be great, I do however enjoy writing it and sharing it with others. I am currently working on one short story, while an older one is rough written and hiding in a box. I do plan to submit one in the not so distant future. I never know what to say here: So I will leave this with Love and Light; Blessed Be! Gerald more…
