Beginnings...







I am not surprised with your desire to
end our beginning,

the presence of the past casts
a long shadow and creates
fertile ground for unhappiness
to grow.

Even as the light of your smile,
fills my life with the warm glow
of love and life

I can't help but see the tinge sadness
that has infused itself and become a part
of you, waiting patiently in the background.

Beginnings begin, none perfect, all
with obstacles and barriers,
that whether we admit it or
not were erected to protect us from the
painful moments of our past.

Barriers that could be overcome,
moved aside and kept in the past

If you would only let me
touch your heart.

You see, the moment you
smiled at me I knew the time
had come for me set aside my past

When you kissed me, I was overwhelmed
by the power of your desire,

yet you pulled away in fear,
of me and what you felt,
and withdrew, back to the place where
you hide your affection.

I know the feel of anguish,
broken dreams, and misplaced
expectations, the pain of being
used and cast aside,

I've cried in the quiet of
the night... alone, with nothing
but tears and bitter regret

questioned both God and
my existence.

What I feel is that we can heal
together...

If you would only let me
touch your heart.
