Agony and Ecstasy I look at you in gentle sleep My love I cannot measure Such sweet ecstasy I reap In this heart I truly treasure Each gentle breath I await In the rising of your breast Then gaze again in its abate Soft contours of your chest Calmest beauty of your face My fingers trace your lips Stores of past soft embrace As my lips did yours eclipse It’s agony to love this much Your beauty deals me pain After even the briefest touch My heart aches for it again I couldn’t live without you Anguish would be too great The ecstasy of love’s accrue The agony loss would create |

My Oh My! Oh Brian, things may be mighty cold outside up north, but your writing is very warm indeed. Beautifully penned poet sir. P.S. I was going to offer you some hot chocolate, but, it doesn't sound as though you need any. ![]() ~Warm hugs from Southern Ontario, Nancy~ ~* A dream is a wish your heart makes... *~ |

So many heartfelt emotions in this piece. You write so beautifully Brian. I have the same feeling as you describe here. You must have a lucky love there, because you have such a sweet and beautiful heart. Great job. Randy Meador a life lived unexplored is a life not worth living. |

It’s agony to love this much Your beauty deals me pain After even the briefest touch My heart aches for it again I couldn’t live without you Anguish would be too great The ecstasy of love’s accrue The agony loss would create I've lived this love and you have written it perfectly. |

Brian- Wow...this is really beautifully done. You've done an excellent job of capturing both the agony and the ecstacy in this piece. Wonderful! ![]() Hugs, ~Vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truly met the poet. ~vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (01-09-2002 03:39 AM).] |
