“Reflections…”
Brave.
Revealing one’s tenderest depths.
A heart-song,
in state of undress.
Acute recollection,
en route to perfection,
in past-historic time.
Engaging your partners-in-rhyme,
each line, by meticulous line.
Such a sign,
of courageous endeavour,
to open a treasured,
emotional process.
Would others so do?
So, confess?
I silently, surely, cry
“Never!”
As,
it’s not about being “too cool”,
nor, a strategy, to “take you in”,
to manipulate,
go beneath skin,
by feigning, “clever”…
It’s pure and it’s humble…
… inspires us all,
to share, from profundity,
one-on-one,
just how we feel.
It’s authentic…
It’s touchingly, real…
… and,
this is what brings us,
and binds us,
so tightly, together…
… in Love and Respect,
for Now and Forever.
