A Poem by Yu Yu

 

Communication:

The silence between us

That we both understand.

And pick up

On what the other says

And knowing each other’s ways –


Understanding:

One glimpse of you,

One glimpse of me,

One breath,

One sigh,

Picking up meaning

Without even thinking.


Nostalgia:

When you walk away –

When you’re far away

My thoughts go astray…


Warmth:

Is what I feel

When you’re near

All my wounds heal,

Without a drop of tear

The flight of fear

Yes. Quality. I like the way this works. The use of the defining words and their definitions works well and to great effect. There are some fantastic ideas in there, expressed simply without protention. It reads like a blue print for love. I really like this write!

As with your other pieces, this is very good. I am really enjoying reading your work.

I like how you broke it down as well - Communication, Understanding, Nostalgia and Warmth.
