In My Thoughts Poem by Shannon Wade

You’ve unlocked the voice trapped inside me
Refining the woman deep within
Hidden behind the youthful spirit
My fears are pushed to the side
You reassure me that I am capable
You lift me up and crown me in respect
Never attempting to tear down my towers
My eyes gaze into the midst of nothingness
When your voice greets my ears
Lost deep in a daydream full of intimate thoughts
Dreams of passion
Thoughts that lead down a road of no end
Have you ever been so certain of something?
So sure?
So sure to the point that you could nearly feel it?
To the point you could almost taste it?
The taste of certainty delights my tongue
Satisfying my appetite of satisfaction
Constant visions weigh on my mind
Me striding toward you
Draped in cream and champagne gold
The sheer veil conceals my cool aid smile
Tears of joy streak my cheeks
For in moments
I will unite with my king
