This is a poem I wrote from the point of view of the
boy/man I am most fond of a few years ago.
Stranger To Love By Britnie Phillips
There she sits, atop her mount. Eyes wide with joy, head held
proud. Who is this creature? Who has stolen my dreams, Helped me live in
worlds sewn together with golden seams. So strange, so confusing, so
frightening. A Stranger, am I, A Stranger To Love.
I first saw her,
not so long ago, Shy, meek, but full of go. I watched with fascination,
far below, not daring to show. Who? Who was she? I felt I had to know. She
took me with an unseen hand, not knowing herself, Pulling me along into her
lands. A stranger, In strange lands, A Stranger To love.
What
should I do? Who will I be? Oh, why is my mind racing so frantically. Does
she feel, the same as me? Questions are real, and dreams seem so, She is
most real, and I also. Stranger, a Stranger To Love.
I am filled with
strange feelings, so perplexing, But here I go, tossing the strangeness
out, We have, after all, only one life to live. The Lord has been good,
and I shall take the opportunity that He lies in my wake. This Stranger, this
Stranger to Love.
