For my wife...the heart of inexpression
Sue’s Love Locked


My love is a clenched fist,
Raised in anger,
Swinging wildly to be free
Of my tightly woven heart.

Devotions and passions
That are born of you,
Bite and thrash for expression,
I struggle to free them, to let you see them.
I die a little more each time I fail.

I’m panicking Sue, fearful that
you will never
Know the depths
To which you fill me
Terrified that
I will never unclench my fist
For you to hold.


I'm auctioning off my hair to raise money for Breast Cancer Research. Visit http://www.justgiving.com/suemeyer to place your bid!
