You’ll Remain.

Writing With An Open Heart

You’ll remain in a place that nobody could access,
In an emotion that nobody could understand.

I hope you’ve found peace despite the complicated love you gave,
And your strange ways of showing you cared.

You’ll remain in the hearts of everyone who ever knew you,
In a memory that nobody could erase.

Youll remain in my words,
In every tear and with each mention of your name.

I just want all of you.”

All the thoughts in my head freeze up when you come into view. I’m caught off guard, you see. Because you are the most beautiful creature I’ve ever laid my eyes on. And I can’t help myself. I just want all of you. Right now. You can bring your honey and all your fire, but it won’t be enough. I will never tire of you. Together, we will set this world aflame. And we’ll only be beginning.

Thinking about the power of poetry made me curious as to which poems showed up with the most views this year on flashlight batteries. Here are the top three. All of these poems speak of love, hope and a need to  believe in ourselves. I am wondering if this says anything about what people are looking for or needing to hear to move forward…
