~ Tender Knowing ~ Stare back at me & feel the calm we share - Look into me & know I'm everywhere... Your thoughts are mine - I know the way you kiss Away from you, it's truly me I miss. See, I'm complete whenever you are near - Within your eyes, there's nothing that I fear... If ever I am lost - I touch your hand I know you see me there & understand. ~~~~~~~~~ My echo, my reflection, and my wings - I fly within your gaze, my soul it sings... Our arms entwined, tight around eachother I hold you close & want you like no other. I breathe you in with every word you speak - To share this tenderness - I kiss your cheek... Stare back at me & feel this calm we share My angel ever near - I know you're there. ~~~~~~~~~ poetFemmeFatale May 01, 2000 |

Femme, A very beautiful poem. Sometimes, it's a struggle to break into words, feelings some of us may have for another. You destroyed that annoying barrier with your poem. |

There's an angel smiling somewhere right now - and where ever that may be, I'm sure it feels like heaven right about now. Pure gold, Gen... Michael |

serenity - - "aching" is a good choice of word!  Thank you dear!Severn - - Severn?? Is that you? hehe (rubbing eyes...) Just kidding! Have missed you so! Fading Sun - - Funny you mention "annoying barriers"....I've yet to come across one this time. Thank you though for understanding that frustration, that most of the time, we feel.  Janet - - (giggling) All your wows and sighs! LOL I think you LOVE me!  Michael - - Indeed, dreams are golden at times. Martie - - So are you! Thank you dear!** This was a very personal and intimate poem for me to write and share. I'm glad you've enjoyed it thus far. Personally, the last line is my favorite....that one just happened. |

Femme.. This poem echoes a longing I feel in my heart. I have searched for a way to express these feelings myself. I couldn't have said it better myself. Do you mind if I send this to Marcus? I miss ya girl. Help me figure out this internet thing and I will be back up and running before you can say POET INSANITY.. or should that be INSANE POET? hehe. |

I miss these feelings... well, in reality.. still got those "dream dates"... What a bummer that it's not you btw.  Anyways... this one is awesome. Can't wait until I feel this way again, but until then maybe I can pacify myself by printing this one out and reading it everynow and then. Thanks for the memories.< !signature-->"Don't let your character get camoflaged with your environment.
