Unseen

Within the shadows of the night
Two eyes of love are burning bright
Outshining moon and evening star
And watching, wanting from afar

As rising moonbeams slice the dark
And passion yearns to strike a spark
Two arms are waiting to embrace
A lover in a distant place

At midnight’s hour with starlit sky
A heart is asking questions why
With heartbeat pounding wildly
To rhythms of the churning sea

Somewhere a face reflecting glows
Of moonlight on a night he knows
He cannot have the love he seeks
As tears of passion wet his cheeks

In shadows on a night of bliss
Two lips are waiting to be kissed
A face that I will never find
Just wild dreams within my mind

There is no lover such as this
There’s no one waiting to be kissed

Elizabeth Santos

Liz, I could simply read you all morning long, my friend. The lyrical qualities in your work simply soothe my mind, and the sentiments ... just lovely. This is a shining example. Beautifully written.  

Best wishes,

Elizabeth~

Charismatic phrases of delight
Wend their way
on dreams of night
Often unseen
on morning dawned
What waking thoughts
on dreaming spawned

*You STILL inspire me !
Thank you for this lovely penning.

Someday, in a distant mist,
A hand will reach out,
draw you close,
complete the kiss.

Patience my dear, it will come for you, loved your poem. Ron
