Measures

Measures

And, because of the
very measure of my love
I cannot put you down
nor can I bring you up
we are simply left in limbo 
a balloon you are not 
If I was born to love you
I will die loving you 
alas, from near or far 
when the wind blows north
my heart will blow onto yours 
and I may just float, perhaps?

Hello Shirley...

Did you see the guy who had a Bunch of Helium Balloons tied to his Chair?

Did he land in the Pool?

Those that do, should...

Those that don't, shouldn't...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...

I couldn't speak of the one I read before this, but this is superb. And I just like to that the word limbo is superb. Let us all never find ourselves!

Or home in my case, thank you dearest Rory, where ever we find love be it with a place a person a season or other it's still love, and it is certainly within us. Thank you dear friend. 🌹
