My mind wanders to last night It felt so right Your body next to mine Felt way more than fine I wish I could make it last Recreate a piece of the past But life doesn't work that way I will wait for another day What I wouldn't give For another chance to live Our bodies together as one In the heat of the sun Feeling the intense rays Throughout all my days Beating on my skin I know I can win All I have to do is try No need to be so shy Our bodies on the sand Travel through time to a distant land Where time and space subside With me at your side Day after day It could be this way ------------------------------------------------------ Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

Nice poem Lone Wolf. Good work with the rhyme and it just flows down the screen with sensitivity of feeling. Actually, I see no reason why this could not be posted in Open #6. You would probably get many more responses. It does not have strong Adult content. Anyway, thought you did a nice job with this piece. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

I must agree with everyone else on this one. I loved it, it brought back a lot of feelings of my boyfriend and I (we haven't broken up, but we've come close). So I can totally relate to this poem. Absolutely honest and beautiful! "It was my love that did us both to death. " -Sylvia Plath |

LoneWolf** The true expression of what making love is all about. You used style and grace and made it flow from your soul...nothing could be more beautiful. Hold me for yesterday Kiss me for tomorrow But love me for today. |

*sigh*...very nice LW...perfect poem of longing, and love...very nice. take care, jm The stars shine so bright, now's the time I close my eyes - soft wind touch my face, Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you And held you close. Now I will reach for the stars... Because Oh my love, that's where you are... Though the storms of black night rage on I still see your face I still feel your lips on mine And though my heart feels all alone without you I still hear you sing to me I still hear your voice on the sea... vertical horizon |
