This is dedicated to a very special and important person in my life.  

If you listen closely,
The sound you hear
Is the melody of serenity.
Can’t you see?
My heart is in the music;
My soul lies in the harmony.
There really hasn’t been anything
I’ve been dwelling on lately
Other than this peace
That took me over
In those short hours
We were together.
I could lie there forever,
Whether you’re sleeping or not,
And just listen to you breathe.
And, there really isn’t anywhere
I’d rather be
Than there with you again,
On that bed of tranquility,
Where, in the silence,
The intensity of your love
Consumed my already-burning heart.
So, if you listen closely,
That sound you hear
Is the melody of serenity
Derived from your heartbeats.

'cause I am hanging on every word you say, and, even if you don't want to speak tonight, that's alright, alright with me...

You put some grate lines in this one. I rember feeling like that and this opme realy brought those feelings back vary well done.

Beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it’s the middle that counts.

SnowPants:

Excellent poem. It brought tears to my eyes it was so sweet and I can imagine the peace you felt. I wish it was possible to just bottle up good happy feelings and take them out when your sad. Aimster was right, you are a good poet. Take care.

My friend, you look so lovely wearing love.  So nice to see you shining lately in this wonderful heart of yours.  Hugs to you and a kiss if he don't mind.  JUST A SMALL ONE YA KNOW!!!

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.
