Melting



Every time I touch upon a certain note
the flows start universally reverberating,
spring explodes in melting flows,
joy triumphs like the age of miracles,
and any wonder seems about to happen.
That is when we strike a chord together,
when we musically harmonize as souls
and when our thoughts join hands
and are united in the ether.
Why is it not always then like this?
Perhaps we need to cry alone sometimes,
perhaps our need of rest from love
is equally important to our need of love,
perhaps our loneliness is equally important to our company;
but when I melt in tears alone there is no greater urge
than just to share that heartbreak and compassion
and unite in my most devastating sorrow
with that endless ocean depth and richness
of your own profuse affliction,
so that we could cry together and the more
to make our sweet multiplication
of our sorrows and compassion tally.

Loneliness: Maybe we need it, but we don't have to like it?! Definitely among your most penetrating poems, in my book.

I do believe you've caputured the essence of Melting in the one line".."perhaps we have to cry alone sometimes.." Just crying our hearts out in the stillness, but our Creator hears and sees...

Just lovely!
