Strength and Fortitude

Afternoon, all. It’s been a hard few days. I have poems to share! Lots of writing. It’s the only thing that’s kept me sane. I do hope you like this one. I wrote it this morning and it’s very special to me. Without further ado…


My Soul To Give

Oh I do hope you take your strength from me, my love

From my chest

From my mind

From my bones

And from my stomach

I do hope you take this strength

For anything i give

I give freely to you, my love

My little dove

I am yours

To do with which you need

Always yours,

My love

I wear these weathered hands

If only until you return

To take them from me

And steady yourself with them

I wear these weathered arms

If only you’ll return

To take them from me

And hold yourself with them

I am yours

Forever and always

My soul to take

Yours to keep

For heaven is a place i found in your arms
