    But For You

                                           But for you
    For so long now I have been alone, that was until I first met you,
    As each dawn breaks I see your face your smile now see's me through.
    Maybe for you I was just another guy, another one night stand.
    But as you slept, I fell in love as I gently kissed your hand.
    I don't expect you to understand, but with you I felt alive, please don't ask me why.
    My night with you gave my life another chance, and a reason why I should not die.
    My mind made up I faced the fact, without love I did not want to live.
    You see meeting you has postponed my fate, my selfish thoughts I beg you to forgive.

    Sweet filled openness creates a place of safety, it fills the spaces that fear with confidence that self is welcomed and engaged here to loosen the flow of revelation into the hands of lovers who commit to integrity and honor of sanctuary. No doubt there are other similarities between us for I made the same vow in selfishness, for to experience that is worthy of the divine breath of life.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
