Poetry: Whole

Love

It came over me as I sat there, scared,
humble and unsure
It came to me like the rays of the sun,creeping across the floor,
gently touching my face and giving me warmth.

It came, out of nowhere, all my
senses focussed here, on this one thought, this one feeling. On this love.
Came and took me over, spreading from
my heart to my mind
Spreading out through my fingers to the ends of the earth.
It came and filled me to bursting, so that my mind thought of nothing, and my heart hurt from wanting

Renewed blood sped all through me, the world looked brighter, more intense
Simple noises sounded sweeter, tears sprang forth from my eyes
as if there was no more room left inside me

It came right to me,
Surrounded and swallowed me, silenced my hurt.
Comforted.

This feeling, it comforted me,
Wrapped me in an embrace,
kissed my lips and my eyes,
Made me whole

    Paddington Station

    I saw him sat there on the train,
    all briefcase and smart suit.
    Coherent words flew my pickled brain
    leaving
