Because Of You Poem by Apudo Apudo

I dare to lose my breath

I know the clasp of warmth

I know my heart's placid beat

I know good music

When I hear it

When steady, a wind blows

And when I sigh

It shows



Because of you

I have known the silence

The jewel

Forged in the meeting of souls

I can listen

To the whisper of eyes

I recognize

I realize

The folly of distance

I've borne strength for two

The shared pain

Because of you




I can remember

Deeds past and present

From a heart so tender

Too late, I've learnt

To take beauty's cue

At first view

To take a chance

On yester's broken chalice

And I know it's okay

To not know

What sea may cast ashore

Because of you
