All I Have Poem by Viola Grey

All I Have

Rating: 4.4


You are an arrow
piercing my heart
with glowing joy,
rivalled only
by undying passion.

What I am
is all I have,
given to you
in this simple package...

Green eyes
that see everything,
reveal nothing,
but say so much.

Sharp teeth
biting back words,
smiling at your name,
invading my friend's
lonely tears.

Simple dreams
of happier tomorrows
shared with you
in deep abandon.

So - you, my dream,
are all I could want...
but all I have
to give to you
is what I am.

'all I have to give to you is what I am.' That Viola is a great deal indeed. Beautifully done and very romantic. Who would not want to be called a 'dream.' How wonderful to be called that. Great poem.

Love is faith, to dream, to hope. And this poem speaks to all three - faith, hope, love dreams - and that's everything that the human heart longs for, and needs. Great! ! ! !

Hi Viola, I thought this was beautiful and expresses how unsure we are in love and how vulnerable. Thanks
