The Shores of Alone

I want to be your Juliet
although with happy ending
I want to be your Marion
my love of ages sending.

I want to become your Scarlett
and you my devilish Rhett
I want to be your lady faire
as you are my Knight errant.

I must always be Pandora
who wants all of which you hide
as she kept hope inside the box
so then, shall I thus abide.

I want to be your true solace
when the days and nights grow blue
I want to be your last lover
whenever this life is through.

I want to be your everything
not simply the one you knew
for in my heart is all of it
my complete desire for you.

This one is fun and sentimentally sweet at the same time.  So much said here actually.

Loved this line especially:

"as she kept hope inside the box"

Ah yes...without hope we have nothing....hold onto to it Sandra...and don't let go!

And run out to catch it.

Juliet and Scarlett's timing was a bit off. Pandora's box was better left untouched, Marion I don't recall but seem to remember Robin Hood expired. You deserve a kinder fate. Very flowing poem of hopeful Love.

For vision from afar
Up close beholds your key

Very romantic piece you have written.
It's a longing that many strive for.
Well done.

I want to be
the black to your white
the good to your night
the knock at your door
the heart you beat for

I don't know how I missed this one, lil sis, because it stands out in it's total beauty!
What a wonderful write, but your pen always has this effect on my soul!  

The road goes on forever, and the stories never end...

Wonderful writing. I really enjoyed reading this. May all your wishes come true.
