Transparent

I could not make those pages come to life
without the whispered words of love you share
Convince my heart when eyes and lips combine
to bring the scent of hope into our air
Surrender me to your will, take my hands
and place them high above my damaged soul
Squeeze strength into my veins with future plans
to carry me and ground me when I fold
into a paper thin transparent pain
sacrifice who I am for someone else
There is no place for love and all its games
a short pause between heaven's breath and hell
We saved a tree and planted a new seed
which grows and blooms while we wait patiently
