It was in your eyes,
the color of lost people
and unfinished dreams
where I saw
the wooden sky
of splintered
possibility.

Through empty oceans
of broken vases
I hear your smile its'

Moan

Like a torn skirt
On a branch of wind

Falling on
Burnt meadows
Of powdered coral.

I dream your lips,
a glistening rose
Emerging through
The melting sunlight
of burning snow

Your peaceful tresses
Like glittered rain
Lay upon my mind
And shallow
Through marbled
Thoughts
Of sparrows
And flowing grass

As your spirit

A velvet breath
Forever taunting
With hues of distant
Songs
In the dawn
Of trapped
Emotions

Drips onto me
And sighs

Kiss me
Sweet one

In our hearts core
And hold me
Till my breaths
Are nevermore

As I am surrounded

by love

And yet, still
I am alone

Alone with you
where we meet
in the soul
of want
and,

in the heart
of need




Freedom of expression is our, write.

Richy this was a gorgeous write.  I'll dream of faraway places.  I enjoyed the way you used unique line structure to pace the flow of the lyrics.  I particularly like this"Alone with you
where we meet
in the soul
of want
and,

in the heart
of need"  In the want of the soul and the heart of need.  Beautiful indeed.  Pleasure to read

Extremely captivating words, dear Richy! It is as if you surrendered to the beckoning of this dream vision and let it flow within your heart, mind and soul, to record the feelings for us. And to read your emotions is a very lovely experience!

Love,

Really, you are all too kind.
One couldn't ask for a nicer
bunch of folks.
You guys are like,
family.

Richy, your love poems elicit more sighs out of me than a stand of willows in a soughing breeze. Loved it!
