In the woods we walk, silent and untouched
only wanting to be free
No creature nor man may harm us
You are with me
In the darkness of the trees
and quietess of the forest
I come to you
Willingly and wanting
Everything you have to offer
The river flows, gently and freely
Like you touched me just then
so deeply
When I surrender to you
I am helpless at your gaze
Take me away
from life's anger and rage
To a place where only beauty exists
where we can love in peace
without the hate we recieve
our love is not different my dear
just so unique
ill show you what love is
in this secret hiding retreat
And when we must return
to the dangers of this life
I must not forget your secret garden
and the beauty that lies inside

Strange how a poem so filled with cliché ideas can have such amazing appeal. ^^  Every image that was composed is definitely one that I've seen before, and yet, the poem itself had some kind of strange uniqueness that I can't quite pinpoint, but I definitely know is there somewhere... ^^;  Talk about screwy ideas and whatnot...

Anyways, I thought the cliché parts of the poem were well-brought together. ^^  The echo seems very different, and yet very familiar... which is an interesting paradox in of itself. ^_^  I'm a lover of paradoxes.  The only weakness is that the poem does not seem to flow all that well... I don't know why, but it just didn't seem to flow. ^^  Beautiful echo, though...

Anyways, I liked the poem. ^_^  This is... the first I've read of yours, and given how much I frequent this place, that's probably saying a lot. ^_^  I hope you stay awhile and post more of your work... love to read it.  Until then!

Well done here. Very well done. I liked how the ending sounded. Good completion of the whole poem.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Beautiful description of love here, my friend. I love the imagery you put into this. Very well done. Thanks for sharing.

Oh yes indeed... this really had great description, you painted the image very well.
I agree with Hola, good use of cliche.
