Thank You

Life is in me I feel it surge
I feel it pump my soul
massive jolts of energy
as I experience emotion

throwing me one way
and then another
pulling me towards
a destiny I cannot see

should I stop and say no
or let the rope pull me forward
first one way then another
but never back always forward

forward is where you lie
at least this is what I hope
your dreams and mine
intertwine and lead us there

without you in some way
I find emptiness
a gaping hole
filled with blankness

even to just see you here
is enough to fill that hole
that horrid place
that devours something in me

so thank you my Jenny
for what you give
so freely and without cost
a treasure beyond price
