I'll Be Along Soon

I’ll Be Along Soon
Tears for you
Tears for me
Arms holding love
Wait to be filled
No rush, no time
Ticks the soundless clock
So tired of living
Weak, wan and old
Take me to you
Release my poor soul
Unworthy of love
I’ve sinned, cried and died
Deeper within me
Than mortal has pried
Your will is my will
My heart’s out of tune
Hold, heal, enfold me
I’ll be along soon.

Byron~
This is bone scraping. Thank gawd we (humans) can float when treading water becomes too much.
You have such a way with condensing a lot within a tight space.
After reading this, I clicked on your www and saw that 'C. Blount' quote on your site. It made me think of one of my recent poems. I'll post it...(what the hell).

Thanks L. It is a prayer. I wrote it from start to finish in tears.

Byron, thank you so much, most beautiful poem, it is a pure magic, to say things so truthfully!
Byron, I am going to copy your poem and will be sending to some friends, I hope you don't mind.
The name of the poet would be Byron?
