Love Poem: Luminosity

Luminosity

A glowing angel is the candle
who warms my heart and lights my way
when I’m blinded by sorrow and despair
As my sagging heart drowns in desolation
your piercing eyes intrude me

You peek through the windows of my core 
infinite boundries to discoveries unfold  
where emotions erupt and brim over
The tears that trickle from these gateways
come from within and cleanses my soul

A spark embers when head and heart clash
generated hope signals rainbowed destiny
as your radiance uplifts my spirit
My mind, the conduit to my heart
forlorn in a sea of existence ignited 

Accepting love’s risk without regret
at one with myself and the world
while pulsing heartbeats soothe me
Leaping dolphins share the sky with eagles
surviving life until bereavement

Tranquility glistens as sunset looms
and stars bound to the ocean floor
is mirrored in the vastness of dark skies
My mind is at ease and goes to rest
as my gaping heart invites love to nest
