Poem: If Not Within My Heart
By: Donovan Baldwin
Where does love reside?
That warm and tender grandeur,
Which takes my soul to the
Highest of the heights,
Filling me with wonder, and,
Making me, a mortal man immortal,
For who can die when bound to
Boundless ecstasies of wonderment?
Where does love reside?
When hidden from the view,
Of ordinary mortals, yet,
Visible within all spectrums,
To the wondering eyes of
I, the lover and, you, the loved,
Seeking, and reaching for,
One another, touching in all ways,
You, the one most loved and,
Sought after with all my soul.
Where does love reside,
If not within my heart?
Where does love reside?
That warm and tender grandeur,
Which takes my soul to the
Highest of the heights,
Filling me with wonder, and,
Making me, a mortal man immortal,
For who can die when bound to
Boundless ecstasies of wonderment?
Where does love reside?
When hidden from the view,
Of ordinary mortals, yet,
Visible within all spectrums,
To the wondering eyes of
I, the lover and, you, the loved,
Seeking, and reaching for,
One another, touching in all ways,
You, the one most loved and,
Sought after with all my soul.
Where does love reside,
If not within my heart?
