Reverie

Oh to write someday not for the shock value but for instilling a sense of comfort Words of soft empathy rubbed slowly into your being Washing away all your salted wounds Caressing, soothing, a touch of home Of woollen mittens, warm shawls and soft rugs Keeping your eternal winter at bay I am here, for better or for worse Forever is a threatening foreboding None of that No time shall measure our love It will be soft like friendship nay kinship And warm like your sister's hug My writing will bring you comfort That is my utmost yearning Not desire, such a dire word that. Yearning - soft, hidden but ever present Words - lulling you to a happy coccoon Of belonging, contentment and unbridled joy. Someday. #reverie
