Head Up High

You and I just met On the road of words Composing our poems That may go unheard Who knows what it was That formed this connection We both are private people We stay that way for our protection So much information For now we'll not exchange We will keep it this way As we have both explained You are living your life While I'm here living mine Both of us still writing Banging out the rhymes I have opened the window That leads to my soul Someday my life's story To you will be fully told I can read the confidence That you display in life I wonder to myself Are you someone's wife? You should know that I respect All the poems that you write I read them in the evening Just before I turn out the light I know in time I will see When you claim your place With poems that you write Filled with style, beauty and grace When that time happens Collect your accolades After all you will have earned them With every thing a price is paid Always hold your head up high Always keep reaching for the sky As long as a dream is still alive You should never be completely satisfied 11-10-18/RjH
