if I came to you
vulnerable and open
would you reach for me,
one arm securing
all that I am,
while using the other
to point out across
my insecurities.
anchoring our eyes
as one,
and say
enough, these end.
then, holding tighter,
you would smell my hair.
Yes!

A romantic! The imagery of the bay, and the use of the word anchoring provides a wonderful metaphor.

A beautiful poem. Gentle and flowing, with just a hint of sadness.

Stephen, thank you for being here. Sadness, perhaps, but maybe just maybe longing which contains hope. Most importantly. I’m glad this touched you.
