If I never say how I feel does it mean <br />feeling goes away; no, feeling lives on <br />in my heart, shall be there until we part <br />then encapsulated in deep freeze until <br />all is revealed at the end of time <br /> <br />Physical reality does not have space for <br />this frequency, made my peace that the <br />world cannot allow this to be; I offered <br />unwavering support - helped where I <br />could hoping to leave a memory <br /> <br />Yet oddly content as all remained un- <br />aware of my existence as it should be, <br />no place in reality for the feelings pure <br />and sweet I treasure within, cherished <br />in deepest recess of inner sanctuary <br /> <br />Took up breastplate and sword to ward <br />off arrows of doubt about meaning of love <br />unrequited, looked at my beloved sun, re- <br />joiced in ability to admire, nobody knew <br />I walked this earth, this is perfect <br /> <br />Love unconditional the name of the game, <br />when trust enters the equation expectation <br />spoils devotion - bury feelings to be safe in <br />the sacred place where precious jewels <br />of love and wisdom are held <br /> <br />Framed by high ideals extracted from wild <br />ore that abounds, mounted on the high <br />altar of my heart, I do not require much <br />from those I love, quiet devotion quite <br />enough to keep joy alive…<br /><br />Margaret Alice Second<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/altar-of-my-heart/
