wish list

I love in silence. All truth told in silence. No one knows what hides beneath this hooded cape. The truth is that which I never show. I long for things warm and sincere. I long for the greatest love. My scarred heart yearns for all things good and worthy of reciprocity. Love, evermore. Friendship of the purest kind. A mother's embrace that gives relief to heartbreak. A father's return that would make evern the greatest things seem insignificant...

An evening of quiet solitude
Searching, wandering in the depths
of this tangled web of mind
oblivious in the melancholy hum of silence.

I yearn for love
that flows like the river
Quicksilver escaping these wanting fingers
Intangible as the wind
Unable to grasp and hold near
A longing greater than love itself.
