Too Long Denied, She Rages In My Sleep Poem by Patti Masterman

Too long denied, she rages in my sleep
(No stairway to my heart too steep)
Mellow, she sings a soundless melody,
(Unloose the wires; you'll soon be free)
She waits, she waits in deepest midnight
Never visible, except by hindsight.
(Poor thing, she sighs, you stand upon the lea)
Surrounded by leaping waters of sea,
For fear of drowning, I will not jump in
(That's alright, says she, it is not a sin)
I'll just stay here, beside the spray
(And I'll make of you a rainbow, one fine day)
