If You Knew

If you knew it was your words that comfort me, a blanket to hold me in my insecurity, a light in the dark, a flame to keep me warm, you are the umbrella to shield me from the storm. But I don't know how to tell you you're the one, my words are frayed like a sweater coming undone. I'm quietly screaming to get your attention, please for a moment look in my direction! If you knew you're the reason I rise from bed in the morning you're the first thought in my head. Would you be my pillow, be more than a dream, fill my galaxy with a kiss like a moonbeam. What would happen if our worlds collide? until then, in the shadows I hide. If you knew I wrote this poem just for you, what would you do? what would you do?

Beautifully expressed sense of insecurity that makes love even sweeter if it ever is heard. :)

The mystic space between two hearts where dreams sometimes get lost. Can leave you holding back your love at such an awful cost. If this is true then let your words be clear. So that the one you've fallen for can hear. :)

Hi Casarah, this is such a beautiful write, words that come straight from the heart onto the page. This is the kind of poetry i really like to read. The words sing straight into the heart. Let your heart sing and you shall never go wrong. A gentle song that sings into my faves. Have a wonderful Sunday. Hugs....Mike. XX

You whisper words of longing love, and the heart certainly feels each one. This is o beautiful, filled with many emotions. ~ Brandy

WoW! Casarah, I see why Lyric got inspired to write a echo. If he knew, you would be be his pillow and so much more,he would turn your dream into reality, and go to the shadows and bring you into the light. Good content and rhymes. Excellent job. It's good to you posting again. Welcome back:-) Alexis
