Letters of Your Name

Many men profess their love with
Haughty and arrogant truths
Arranged to sound endearing
Not gaining insight into
The many feelings shared
Among Romeos and Juliets
‘Is there a difference between
The beauty of a rose and the sight of your face?’

Ever present admissions
Held in my mind out of fear
When this wall falls
Two hearts emerge as one
We perceive a resolution
And we pray it is not in vain

O, I am but a simple person
With fears, questions and doubts
But you were always natural
Beauty; essence; even touch
I was assured and confident
Even in your absence; you rule my thoughts
You’re my life, my heart, my soul
