The heart of you

0 posted 2003-05-01 04:31 PM


This is a repost.  For now, my Moonlight, until the right words come again to my pen.  I know that they will soon, having read your words today.

Speaking to you this way, without form and rhythm,
I find that the words do not come as easily as they normally do.
But, it is how I must speak to you now.
I must speak to you as my self, as your own, as the poet of your heart.
For in this guise, I can best tell you what is on my own heart.

I love you.
Not as the flowers need the rain, or as the ocean needs the shore.
Not as the Winter needs the Spring, or as the night needs the day.
I love you.
I love you as you are.
I love you as your heart sings with my own
When candles burn against the wall, and the only sound is your dreaming breath.
I love you as your eyes meet with my own
When the only thing that matters is the way you are in my life.
I love you as your hands slip softly into mine
When our dancing makes the world stop and stare and wonder in delight.

Our song is no longer quiet, a secret that is kept beneath.
Rather, it is something that is seen every day in skies of life,
When we rise at dawn, and spin at dusk.
That is all that is needed, the sight of us.
We make the world move and listen with our light and our words.
Timeless, we are.
Timeless, we shall be.

So, rest now my Moonlight Love,
Rest your head now so soft upon my Daylight shoulders,
And sleep the sleep of lovers again.
Dream the dreams of Romeos and Juliets,
And feel the touches of fingers and feathers.
Feel the thread of my love
As it begins to wrap around your heart,
Binding it to itself and to my heart.
See me shining in your sky,
And know that no matter how far,
Our hearts are always in love.

Peace is the only battle worth waging.

Post or repost Romeo...I am so glad I found this here.
This reads as gentle as a lover's sigh.
Very beautifully penned.

dancing with you in the summer rain~

I had mixed feelings with this one. Some of the verses I found cheesy and predictable, others were quite good.

I would drop lines 6-11, they're not quite needed; maybe as an ending...

Thank you all my friends.

davidmerriman, thank you for your comments.  Sometimes, though, love cannot help but be cheesy and predictable.

Thank you again.
