You touch me in places
Foreign to lingering lust
Where blood flows heavy
And veins pump deeper than an oceans rush
You take me over mountains
You make waters flow from some of the driest, emptiest of fountains
Hidden in a dream
You gave me babies to love me and called them queens
You sunk me into life
Long before I became your wife
You pumped love into my veins
And quoted scripture to repair my broken brain
What a tedious job picking locks and whispering through rusted chains
With nothing to gain
You
Loved
Me
You
Loved me
To
Life

very nice….
Thank you (:
no worries..
Can you explain it’s meaning too
Hi Aisha, it started out about a man that seen through my wall I had up from all the frogs I kissed and ended about how God loves (ed) me soooo much more. I have the word wife in the poem and I just haven’t found another word that rhymes to replace wife lol. Poetry is fickle. I really appreciate you visiting my space and commenting ❤️
I think wife is perfect word here:) Your poetry is deep i liked it alot:)
Thank you Aisha ❤️

I didn’t get its meaning
It’s hard to get to a woman heart, it’s locked up, no man can get in, it’s been broken too many times. Rusted chains just means she hasn’t been touched and not physically but mentally in so long because she’s not open, she’s rusted. It needs to be a calm peaceful whisper but it’s tedious because she ain’t easy. He has to gain her trust and only God can do it man has been incapable ❤️🩹 Hope I broke this down. I feel these lines more than I understand them. Sometimes I read something and don’t quite understand but the poet in me feels the words as metaphoric as they may be. Again, poetry is fickle ❤️ I soooo appreciate you! Just the fact that you want to understand means everything!!!! God didn’t want a thing (nothing to gain) He loved me to life ❤️🩹
thanks alot for making me understand. I like poetry too but i really liked this poem. That is true, I am also feeling these lines 🙂
By the way, I’m still rusted 😊 Thanks for visiting ❤️
