Journey Sought

Sensuous impressions made of days yet to be explored
Exuding strength, will and desire for the soul to soar
Anticipated moments careen through the mind
Nestled, comforts of truth immeasurably kind

Honorable, motives that abound
Amiable, hearing a heart's true sound
Merciful, the angst dissipates and clears the skies
Intimate gaze, a fate, profound within the eyes

Loving memories leave not this place
Tears of joy, a smile becomes this face
Onward, the journey sought within is foretold
Numerous wonders, secrets shared unfold

Exploration

Wondering through the depths of my soul
Figuring out emotions beyond control
Corruptions can be left behind
In a dark corner of my mind
Have no fear, enter with confidence
Unblinded light passes through this fence
Pounding wonderments are there to explore
From deep within this budding core
Amazement from newfound peace
Expected to rise in sweet release
Fascination examined in these eyes
Knowing there'll be some compromise
Inner feelings long suppressed
Trouble me no more in great success
Unfading smiles from here to there
Symbolic to those who care
Caress my soul and heart with simplicity
Displays compassion and deep sincerity
Eased soul, mind and body
Strength built in conscious dignity
