So Deep It Goes

So Deep It Goes

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers

So deep it goes

 

 

 

Love walks into our lives

masquerading a false bravado,

beseeching us to fall.

 

It withers

when unattended to,

it scars

leaving an indelible impression

like footprints in the snow...

 

so deep it goes.

Beautifully and succinctly written. Every verse states a truth briefly and matter of factly. The last one, the shortest, sums up the others in four words. Very well done.

Scars is the only word that ever comes into my mind when relating to it. Yes, it goes deep and for some, those tracks never melt away.

Love your writing Kelly. :)

...so true, Tim. Thank you for the kindness of your words. Please know it means so much to me!
Love comes in so many forms. Entices us in so many ways. We need it, we long for it yet we to often fail to give it the attention it is due. It only goes as deep as we are willing to nurture it. Nicely done Kelly.

Take care - Dave

Come into the deepness of enchantment where I hold your hand, look behind your eyes and softly kiss your soul. How you move me women!
