Agonizing defeat- Drapes her shoulder, In quiet whispers... Beyond the shadow- Sweet love lures, In all pureness... Like an old flame- Rekindled, Remade, Begging- For just... ~ One Breath ~ To renew passion Gone dry- But years before... With reborn vigilance- She gently breathes, In and out- Inhaling the essence- Of long ago love... Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

Devina, my friend~ You are just amazing, little one. A more open and honest young woman one could not hope to find. Your talent is growing as you 'grow'. One of the things I admire most about you is the fact that you're such a LADY of dignity ! ![]() Have a wonderful day and may all your tomorrows be happy. Love ya' ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Beyond the shadow- Sweet love lures, In all pureness... Like an old flame- Rekindled, Remade, Begging- For just... ~ One Breath ~ ------------------ *breathe in* holding it... holding it... its too good to exhale... ahhhhhh perfect devina...a breath of fresh air. take care, jm Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders And it makes me want to touch you there. And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind... And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some purpose Well purpose it can't be that hard to find As long as I've got the wind... The wind and your love to carry me. vertical horizon |

devina, such a lovely and well presented verse. The idea of breathing as it relates to love and life has always been one of my poetic favorites. So nice, this one. ~ Claire |
