Love Poem: Betwixt the Lines

Betwixt the Lines

Betwixt the lines
Run the mines
of unharnessed love

Like an arrow through the heart
where does it stop, where does it start

How do you know what each day will hold
This day this year, please stop the cold

Through this darkness I see red
For my heart, it has bled

The pain of loss, the pain of sorrow
Shows us that life is something that we just borrow

Who am I and who are you
Where do we belong in this lifeless stew

I feel the light, but I do not see it
How am I ever supposed to be it

We are one I extol
You and I we share one soul

I feel your pain, I feel your sorrow
Together we will face the morrow

I’ll mop your brow, I’ll wash your feet
I’ll help you try to get some sleep

Let me love you, I’ll hold you in my caress
Tell me what can I do to make your pain less

I’ll dry your tears, I’ll hold your hand
together we’ll draw pictures in the sand
