In Your Poetic Mind

0 posted 2001-10-21 11:03 PM


The times come again
when I think of you
I feel your heart
beat upon my bare soul,
your touch revealing my thoughts
as lips brush together

I see your face in
views of shaded memories
faded rose petals
falling silently under
midnights hue

Your eyes could make
the moment silent,
like a winters night
of freshly falling snow

Beautiful

My heart aches in
a masquerade of splendor

Our last dance
I still feel every moment
pulling me under
becoming one again with the night
I close my eyes to your
enchantment, your radiance

The
brilliance of my anguish

My words fade softly to silent whispers
lay me gently down
my heart is whole with yours
****


I keep my ideals,
because in spite of everything,
I still believe that
people are really good at heart.

I think we all have a few memories such as this, but not all of us could express them quite so beautifully. This is pretty, Lauren.   *hugs*

You write your memories very well. Wonderfully done

*sigh*
I didnt want this to end ...
I could read your poetic whispers till I go blind.
as always...your words touch me in places deep...thank you for that.
beautiful writing and memories dear poetess Lauren  

This distance has shown how the road remains alone
Now I'm looking in my life ... for a truth that is my own.

Lay me down gently
