Heart Master
by: JP Leddy
The stars tugged at my resistance…
Lover-less I wait under the cloud of unbelief…
So many drift in and out of my bed…
None stay within the chamber of my heart…
Yet it is my soul that yearns for love true…
For the embrace that goes beyond momentary climax…
The love that builds a lifetime of moments where two become one…
Heart Master, help this wandering man lost in loneliness…

It’s a little melodramatic, but I think that was your intension, no? I like the term, “lover-less.” It sounds good.
Anarchist,
Love or the longing for it brings the melodramatic in all all of us…our poems, our songs, our emotions…so yep…I went there…LOL. Thanks for your visit.

Heart master… hmmmm… Brings several thoughts to the fore. Mastering the heart or the master ruling hearts … ? Interesting… and in the beginning the stars ‘tugging’ . Well phrased.
Love your perspective, Kiran!
Very beautiful you have truly captured longing

Wow… well put and so poignantly true. I love these lines: So many drift in and out of my bed… / None stay within the chamber of my heart…
Beautiful…..
I was touched by the yearning and longing you captured and the faint light of hope at the end. We all need that light of hope. 🙂 A lovely piece. I enjoyed reading your work.
May your heart see the dreams of your soul turning into reality!
