Absolution: A Poem

One truth in your love,
fills me with oxygen;
A pulsing grey matter,
our own form of Zen ~

One truth in your love,
absolves all of our sin;
Purifying my very being,
washing away deception ~

One truth in your love,
tells me you exist;
Completing my heart and soul,
though we’ve never kissed ~

One truth in your love,
causes me to forget;
Shadows in our lives,
because we’ve never met.

 I originally wrote this 26 years ago & this poem is an updated version of the earlier one (the only difference is the 3rd stanza).  I didn't want to give the wrong impression.

Heart's Winter


Shatterproof
   the glass 
     separating
         You
           and
             I

Expectation's 
  imperfections
     our window,
      frost forever 
        crystallizing 
          
Candles of 
  your warmth
       on the 
     other side
