Love Poem: Cherished In the Word

Cherished In the Word

I Gaze at the night
and black rivers flow by,
till a nebula falls
and I let out a sigh


Delving so deep
In the wonders of space,
is a peaceful way
to create an escape


Soaring the wind
and feeling a storm,
in a cyclone of want
I cruise to free-form


Writing my heart
into each stroke,
whispering secrets
till my voice croaks


Scrawling emotions
I lay them in verse,
cruising through memory
I sometimes submerse


When anger shoots fire
from the end of my pen,
the earth starts to tremble
and quakes till the end


When sorrow blows eddies
through the halls of my heart,
I weep with my hand
as my world falls apart


As the whippoorwill blowing
across oceans and streams,
Trans-morphing the night
into fantastical dreams


I’ve tentatively reached
to show you my mind,
and in opening my heart
each line was defined 


These Words and phrases
I send through time,
with a passion that flames
and a touch of my rhyme


Till heavens doors
swing open for me,
I write whats inside
in flight I am free
