Shelley Jones Poems

It's your words my darling
That I love,
Your words.
And by that I mean your soul,
...

You insist
On hurting and hurting

This silences and steels me

So continue if you must
You broke my heart first
...

Gentle rain, gentle mist
Sprinkles fresh splashes to face,
As if kissed.
...

My writing has become
Dull and Boring;
No adventures written,
No imagination.
...

How do I know if I love you, enough?
How do I know if I love you, for life?

I know the feeling of loving you in my soul
...

I am sorry for the turbulent
Waves throughout history,
Said the moon to the wind.
These made you work extra hard
...

Love emotion and kinship,
Kindness and understanding
Are the only important elements
Of a soul connection.
...

I close my eyes
And think of him.
I open my eyes;
He is standing there
...

Oh! If I could only reach you,
Extend out my hand,
My arm, my embrace;
For us to shed a single tear
...

To live...
To feel alive
To laugh
To sigh
...
