Shadows play and ponder why
I stay and slumber

as your hand trembles in mine.
My claim has been staked .

the pace of the world distracts
I wish to relate.

as red pools in the shallows,
heart drips to the floor

as the center shakes off pleas
to honest deceit.
I love these so much
Your grasp of the spoken word
You bring it to life
🙂
Thanks …I appreciate the sentiment very much…:)
