Love Poem: Still Waters

Still Waters

Beside still waters that run so deep

Angels whisper, lovers weep

Love wanders into hearts for keeps

Such secret passage where passion seeps

Unseen yet felt

unheard, unsaid

Friends before lovers

Thats how we kept ahead

Unknown, never frightened

The doubts only served to tighten

Angels wings, angelic spread

The simple cord of loves tying thread

Unasked for yet receiving

Ungrateful times held meaning

There's no one else for me

No one's lessons ever taught  me

And how my words connect

In this life to the next

Darling can't they ever see

We spoke in rhythmic melody

In tune, in time, in verse, in tongues

The island we found where we belong

Still waters flow with style and grace

The lasting impression of your sweet face

Cascade the falls from waters rush

Hand in hand we bathed in love

Uncertain, yet believing

Leaving without grieving

Where Angels whisper, and lovers weep

Without hesitation, we took the leap

Such secret passage where passion seeps

Angels whisper, lovers weep

Beside still waters that run so deep

Love wandered into our hearts for keeps
