The Heart of Intimacy ©Dawn Minott

Amidst the chaos of life’s relentless race
Looking beyond mere appearances to trace
Beyond what eyes perceive in fleeting glance
To fathom the depths in life’s intricate dance

Externals, mere masks like emotions in flight
Shifting and swaying like shadows of night
But a doubtless heart, steadfast and true
Forever in search to bring love’s essence through

Unchanging it stands like a lighthouse aglow
Guiding through storms of tides’ ebb and flow
With eyes transfixed, piercing through the haze
Sees to the core of love’s light, like rays

Into-me-see deeply, where vulnerability resides
Embrace a sacred connection that silently guides
Into-me-see the heart of intimacy, true surrender
Souls intertwined in love’s embrace, forever

    1. Hello my dearest. I write from the place I hope my heart will arrive at. The kind of love I want, desire and pray will be mine. Until then I write of it from imagination. The power of dreams and creativity uh?! Thanks queen!!!!
