I wanna hold your hand by Josep Ma. Roselldd |
my
hands lightly linger...
to
feel the splendor of you
eyes
closed I trace your face
pausing
to inhale your scent
lost
in the moment of discovery
my
hands gently tremble
to
feel your heart beat with mine
eyes
open I gaze into your soul
pausing
to inhale a breath of life
finding
my way in flickering light
my
hands take hold of yours
to
feel the warmth of your being
eyes
blazing in a midnight fire
pausing, I part my waiting lips
found
within the hands of time

Love the logical development and the subsequent finality in the verse. All the more when emotions exceed the expected. Wonderful write Truedessa!

When I read the first two stanzas I was picturing a mother and her newborn...then I read the ending and took another glance at the picture and realized how deep both loves must be, though different.
