“The poet is
an untier of
knots,
and love
without words
is a knot,
and it drowns.”

Poem:
.
searching for my inner strength
for my love I would go to any length
speaking the truth with only candor
never a hint of being a philander
learning that the perfect word is we
in all affairs, to be as honest as can be
to face the good times and the bad
having a trust that is truly ironclad
the deepest feelings, more than a friend
someone on whom you can always depend
the best partner ever for playing charades
a person with whom you can count decades
the heart that will go with me to any length
the soul who leads me to my inner strength
