Unlocking
"Tell me what's inside your heart," you wrote,
so I went hunting for the key to that neglected vault:
repository of old hurts, old loves, old lives, old dreams,
perfect hiding place for guilt and fault.
Reservoir of secret hopes,
ofttimes flooded o'erfull by streams of tears:
enough to float all happiness away,
stranded, drifting in a sea of years.
Hunt I did, in every dusty nook,
looked high and low in all the chambers of my weary soul:
each sealed room, each spiraled stair, each twisting endless hall,
that damnably elusive key my goal.
One dim map, one battered candle frail,
nothing breaking clumsy fall, a flight:
so steep a drop, but in that darkness lay,
so long abandoned, my heart's key, once bright.
Take the key, unlock my fragile heart,
together we'll discover what has long been sleeping there:
revealing each layer, lying close upon another,
tightly packed, no room to move, no air.
Out pours passion, out pours pain,
out pours need, pain's brother in arms:
an overwhelming gush of bitter juice,
which only Love can heal with its charms.

Gina, This image speaks volumes in itself. And THEN your poetry with it is so touching and memorable that it reaches out to me. I know that others feel the same if they take the time to read what you write with your fine and wonder-filled images on FAA. F/'V
