No Need to Be Strong

Lay Down is a poem about surrender, a reflection on love‘s irresistibility, on how love’s sweetness sweeps you off your feet.

Lay Down – Poem About Surrender

If I lay me 
 beside you 
 in the evening, 
 come morning, 
 I will not wish to rise.
 
If I lay my hand 
 upon yours
 today,
 come tomorrow,
 my hand will not wish to let go.
 
If I lay my eyes
 into yours
 right now,
 come this afternoon,
 my eyes will not wish to gaze upon different stars.
 
If I lay my heart
 into yours
 as you lay yours 
 into mine,
 our hearts will not wish to stir.
