even a dim light
can envelop a dark room with
sights unseen
poetry, once written
and spoken is everything
the poet is not
when a kiss is sincere
that special feeling it inspires
means more than
the two lips
pressed together
my feelings for you
the poems I write whether you read or not
are so much greater
than you or I
we are but vessels
to accept or reject our poems
to each other
looking upon the majesty of it all
those paying attention
see her gorgeousness and
my madness

I've read some internet poetry and more, but I can honestly say that I have never read anyone who derives more from their writing than you. Your desire to write and the fulfilment you seem to acquire is so obvious. Inspiring.
