Pour your eyes all over me
And rain on that moment in time
See the mind that rules the body
Touch the part left behind
Let me become who I need to be
I need to feel what it is like to feel
Once again

Unlock all the mysteries inside me
The dark void that swallows the light
Enter into secret paths willingly
And why I embrace the comfort of night
Are the reasons you will come to see
Make me feel what it is like to feel
Once again

Give yourself, all there is, to me
Forgetting of such things as time
As we come together so completely
That we are something that shines
And we become, all the more free
Let us feel what it is like to feel
This time, once again

You are a PoeticKnight indeed. Your title was perfect, and to feel again is a beautiful thing. I loved your line "Pour your eyes all over me" Welcome.

Thanks for the welcome Sunshine. I posted a few before, but find it hard to write anything consistently.

Thanks Jenn E. I love that name you have *S* I liked that line also, it all started with that line, thanks again.

PoeticKnight, a stirring piece of writing, to be sure. The repetitive composition leant well to the nature of your tender plea. So very nice.

Poetic Knight - so romantically put.  Once again, I loved it.  The search to feel again, so perfectly put to our ears and our hearts.

And rain on that moment in time
See the mind that rules the body
Touch the part left behind
Let me become who I need to be
I need to feel what it is like to feel
Once again

Unlock all the mysteries inside me
The dark void that swallows the light

And why I embrace the comfort of night
====================
Give yourself, all there is, to me

As we come together so completely

*shaking my head...smiling*

I could literally read this poem till I went blind..
and then I'd still read it with my fingertips
this is such a cool poem ...
the cadence is poetic perfection ...
but its the intensity and depth of the way the emotions are defined ...
written so that the reader feels this poem


"Pour your eyes all over me
And rain on that moment in time
See the mind that rules the body
Touch the part left behind"

that verse is cooler than even I know ...oh man...

"And why I embrace the comfort of night
Are the reasons you will come to see
Make me feel what it is like to feel"

and that poet sir...is EXACTLY what this poem does ...
and its very, very cool.

and all I have left to say is...
thank you to Ron for giving back the archives..
its been a while since I went blind  

If my slight Muse do please these curious days ...
The pain be mine ...
but thine shall be the praise.

~Shakespeare~

As I read your words, from the past, I see so many feelings that I have lately. You have a wonderful talent and your own style to showcase it in...I AM enjoying your words. Thank you for sharing.

doing some reading in back pages this morn,
and putting some faves back in to my library that seem to have disappeared (cookie gremlins)*S*
this is such a very cool poem...
that opening verse is worth its weight in poetic gold...
everytime I read it I just shake my head,
as always, the way your poetic mind works impresses....
your words are missed around here PK..never doubt that poet sir.

Well I looked to the sky for my anthem
The words and the music came through
But words and music can never touch
The beauty that I've seen in you
