Love Letter

Memories swim back through
the timeless river that touches my
heart. I unleash the streams that
are held within confines of a heightened self.

The heart races as it used to, my
pulse can be felt within the tremble
the moment brings. When did I chose
the shores over the whirlpools?

Once the rosebuds flanked the
imaginative planes, their touch
soft as a silk skirt's rustle. Sun shone
in the glow borrowed from her eyes.

Proud wind carried her scent on its
wings, love left the heart's cocoon,
soared with the breeze that flew
far above the cluttered minds.

Silence spans the beats that denote
life, I carefully open the folds, embrace
the priceless treasure that is preserved
in the love dipped words.

Isn't it wonderful to what heights love can lift the human mind and what lyrical descriptions are unleashed?
