I constantly hunger
for life
to endure
To but kiss your lips once
softly, with ache...
At times, I suspect reason
for fortune has never been my consort
Yet in this here and now
I'd clasp tightly to the sweetness of you

the reverie

Still I can not condemn
this inherent hurt
which speaks to my heart so eloquently
I sincerely dispute
my rationality
not because I misdoubt us,
or scorn "commitment"
More readily inasmuch as I know
that I just do not give credence to
happily ever-after
My deepest appoligies to my poor victim in this little challenge. I really do admire their work...this is just a form of poetry I can not write well. That is why I stick with metered verses. (Wink!)

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!

Hi passing shadows. Thank-you for reading this ill attempt. I had to try the challenge...I should have stuck with something a little closer to my own style.

Hi littlewing. Sounds like 2 people? (Snicker!) If I say it is a SHE does it narrow it down? Thank-you for reading my little poem...bad as it was.

Again, whether or not you have written this poet well is secondary to the honor bestowed. (And the stepping from ones' skin into that of another)

The write? It's a beauty!
Your costume? Hmmmm, I see an "M"

Oh my Shakespeare,I was wrong with who you were writing about. I now know who.
Your bad LOL.
I agree the person with whom you speak does have some very good poetry.

Hi froggy...glad you liked the poem.

Hi again littlewing. Nope it is not Marie. It was suppose to be YOU! (Wink!) Look at your poem titled Dogma and then re-read my poem. I thought I gave such a good hint naming the poem Belief since Dogma means tennets or beliefs. I suppose I went a little off the beaten path trying to do your style...but what the heck I gave it a go.
