 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Could I endure...?


Could I endure once more an open heart…
and let the whole world to see who I am?
could I find real peace from all I could be…
and yet still remain the same man?
I have been closed to all things a very long time
the walls I have built are so tall
the life I have lived much better alone…
knowing for me all love is cruel.
I have loved with real passion… never skin deep
though I have loved real beauty so fine
each one I loved I loved with the thought…
that our love would stay entwined.
But fate led me everywhere then back home again
with only memories to hold in my arms
and as I sit here writing my thoughts…
my loneliness no longer has charm.
So could I endure to open my heart…
for the whole world to see who I am
could I find love to break down these walls
and return me to being a man?!

Any offers?
