Letter To The One I Love
by JeromeProphet
I know you feel confused
By what was wrong
And what was right
By what we did that night
And now you run from me
And deny your true feelings
Just to survive having to return
To a place that should be your solace
And not your prison
Somewhere along the way
You have forgotten
And
You have denied to yourself
The truth of what we did
Of what we said
And how we felt
Of what we promised
And the freedom
In finding yourself
And your future
The passion, and compassion
The tenderness in each other
Which brought us into oneness
A oneness that will last forever
A oneness of our souls and our destiny
Drifting upon a sea of memories
Both future and past
My sweet beloved
That bond has a right to exist
And you have a right to create yourself anew
To slip the shackles of your guilt
To free yourself from oppression
And a misguided sense of obligation
To an abuser
To a destroyer of dreams and hopes
A false obligation to the one who knows you not
Nor ever could
I hold my flame rightly within me
Stoked by a fire of undying love
For you, and your little one
And I know that I am unworthy of you
And always will be
Yet I will lead the way if you follow
And we will reach our promised land
Of this I am certain
It will take an act of courage
And faith my princess - in yourself
For once we set off there can be
No turning back, without even
A greater loss of yourself to his darkness
And insanity
I promise upon my very
Existence to adore you
And put you first in all of my thoughts
And deeds
And consider myself most fortunate
For the privilege
