This cold freezes my soul...all I'd need is a smile.
This tempest blows me away....it'd take but a calming look.
I could never be free...I'll never stand alone--
For you have succeeded at stealing my heart.

You're the one...I've been stricken.
I was established...then you came into view.
I could always focus...I can no longer take my mind off of you.
It's love, it's adulation...call it what you will--I'm mesmerized.

If there's somebody to save me from this wrong,
If there's somebody to warm my heart again...it's you.
There's a line in between...I can't make it out--
Sail above the incomprehensible to translate for me.

I guess it's been a while...perhaps it hasn't.
Nonetheless, I can no longer find reason to refrain.
Set me free...all it'd take is your touch.
Ease this ache...I'll need but a sincere indication.
(Dear love, I'd need just a glimpse.)

-kh '00

(this is a revised repost of one of my early works... )

it was love that first drew me,
it is love that will keep me here...
now I see love burning brightly
when everything else is unclear...

============================

Yowzers...such anticipation...like a poetic sugar rush  
Love the vocab in this...and of course the(...)  
wonderful outburst of emotion and devotion.
way cool write poetess blizzardbooty  

only you could give love that satisfies the soul...
see the darkness of my heart and still won't let me go.

A nice piece of longing and love
I liked the last few lines in particular...

Thank you

Then I would say " Stumbling into the pathway of your gaze, could take me prisoner anyday".  What a beautiful expression and done so in the typical "snorepants" (oops, I mean "snowpants) style and use of the English language.  Did I give too much away????  Loved it my sweet friend.

I like this, touches a hidden place of mine that gets dug out every once in a while   lol  Enjoyed much!

Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer.
