Poems
May 2012
Sweet Simplicity
Two small letters
Alone with little significance
But when paired
Carry heavy consequence
Repulse and rejection
Persuasion and promise
A single syllable that
With impeccable timing
Can ignite powerful fire
But first that leap
One of faith and blind abandonment
Must be taken
To go
Where many have gone
With dreams of different results
To break down walls built strong and high
A hard earned twinkle
Gleaming in her eyes
That smile so sharp
Cutting sweetly deep
Releasing the **** holding back
Everything in life you wish for
Before you I stand
Heart pounding heavy
Ready to leap from my chest
With one thing on my mind
A single statement to be made
Not that your elegant beauty brightens the world
For that is an obvious truth
This statement is much simpler
Bold and beautiful
If uttered correctly
As I bring myself to meet your eyes
Deep like the sea and powerful
Like the waves crashing on the shore
My lips part
"Hi."
