Poem: Essence Surrendered

Essence Surrendered

Essence surrendered, burning pain
Love remembered, soothing rain
Gentle soft voices, over the wire
Caressing our hearts, filled with fire
Your touch drifting through mind
Hand leading hand, never blind
Many stories, each has told
Some hearts, can be bold

Essence surrendered
Love remembered

Upon a cold winter’s eve
By the watchmen’s desk
Your Happy things I did leave
My teary eye toward your window did gaze
The world around me
Seemed a ghostly haze
My heart bursting to be by your side
In the moment, I could only hide

Essence surrendered
Love remembered

And all others I meet
Still seem somehow incomplete
Searching for another like you
Seems impossible to do
For when that special magic was found
Joyous songs in our hearts did sound

Essence surrendered
Love remembered

Remember me as you run
The good times and the fun
Wearing the miles upon your wrist
Your charm I couldn’t resist
No matter how far you roam
In my heart, always a home
Swimming through the oceans and seas
Your essence drifting with the breeze

Essence surrendered
Love remembered
