Love Knocks

Love knocks
I answer
I rush
To comply
To fill
All these holes
With blue
Seamless sky

Out there
Beyond reach
So bright
Beauty drawn
My grasp
Is fragile
I just
Can’t hold on

My eyes
Close to see
The joy
I desire
But dreams
Are fickle
Their lies
Light a fire

I look
For treasure
For what
I can’t keep
I want
Illusions
Comfort
While I sleep

Whispers
Fill the holes
Just wait
Hold your smile
Love knocks
In its time
And then
It’s worthwhile

Love knocks
Then I’ll know
But why
Would I waste
Moments
Precious breaths
Consumed
With hope’s haste

My heart’s
Not ready
But when
I must wait
Endless
Comfort’s found
In Love’s
True embrace.
