Keep Me… ~a poem by Linda Willows

Don’t leave
me here,
don’t fade away.
I prayed
that you…
might ever
stay.

When seems,
that you,
are far,
I melt.
My edges
glaze
with tears;
those,
deeply felt.

Merged
now within
Love’s dear
unwind.
I rise
with the
trust of
beloved mind.
Keep this promise.
That I will stay…
Know my own heart.
Know my Soul’s way.

How could
you go,
how could
you leave?
My heart
is enshrined,
into your
soul’s weave.
Keep me inside,
Keep me still.
Keep me ever.
God keep your Will.

  2. Loved this lines,

    When seems,
    that you,

  4. I know you’re here!
    I am honest as the day,
    But none of us can know
    What will come to pas.
    Now you’re here, please stay!
    Since you came to be with me,
    Twined into the fibre of my being.
    I am fulfilled! I feel complete!
