Lost In You, A Home Pome Poem by Glen Kappy

Lost In You, A Home Pome

Rating: 5.0


There is the rising
fierce, intense
inciting first my sight
and then pursuit
and then release—
no sense denying
what is true.

But there is something else—
in all that goes before
and during and what's after—
a forgetting, a relief—
a blessed reprieve—
from the burden of myself
while lost in you.

Wow, Susan! Thank you for your strong affirmation of this poem. Honesty was definitely something I was aiming for. So much is part of what we call love, and this is an attempt to identify two of its elements. Hoping this finds you well, productive in your writing, and stress-free (or as stress-free as possible) , Glen
