A Change In Mind

A poem for parted lovers

I need a love poem
To say what I cannot,
One that speaks heart to heart,
Without judgement holding us apart.

I need a love poem
To ask forgiveness for our past,
To seek permission for our future,
One that dares to ask for trust.

I need a love poem
To spin our world back to its orbit,
To seal the black hole of loneliness
That is your absence from my life.

I need a love poem
That reaches into you as once I reached,
A deep inside touching, beyond the body.
Where two may merge as one.
