Love Poem: Behind Reach

Behind Reach

You seem behind reach...
if I had the courage to touch
your teary face and stop those tears,
I'd be glad to give you more happiness!

Your beauty is the secret you hide
inside waiting for someone
to discover it and I have 
discovered it by loving you, honey;
what made me fall for you, sweety
was your kindness, every smile 
is a jewel I keep locked in my treasure
chest box as a secret between us
that time will protect from dust...
isn't it a symbol of trust? 

You seem behind reach
when it comes to closeness...
is it something you fear and hide
from me, or is it distrust?
You have to trust me in moments
of weakness, that's when each
doubt make it harder to believe 
that every sigh, every heartbeat
is the life that palpitates inside of us!

You possess soulfulness,
I possess heartfulness
and these are more than enough to feel intense love
to cling us together through our coming storms:
let's entwine tighter than clove,
let's be freer than clouds!
