Unknown Valentine I’ve not gazed into your eyes to see love reflected there Still in my heart I surmise of me you may be aware I’ve not heard your voice speaking soft words that would capture me Yet in my dreams I’m seeking the one who holds my heart’s key I’ve not felt your gentle touch or trembled from it’s sweet heat But in sleep I feel the clutch of hot desire when we meet I’ve not tasted of your kiss as we drink of passion’s wine Still in dreams I feel such bliss when on love’s nectar we dine I’ve not been in your embrace to listen to your heart beat Yet at midnight trace your face and loving kisses repeat I’ve not felt caress divine from a love we both pursue But my unknown Valentine I send all my love to you Karen Torbiak 2002© Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

This is so very beautifully written, Karen. ![]() If I were a witch I'd bring him to life and he'd make your life easy he'd remove all your strife If I were a witch I'd make him so real a man you would see a love you would feel But I'm only human so all I can do is hope that you'll soon find someone who loves you And because we're both poets who dabble in rhyme I hope that you meet him in a very short time copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

Karen, You Paint your dreams in such vivid colours!!!! Excellent ![]() Long Distance Love Song Last night I held you while you cried. I wept along with you... I was that moved to see that you. Felt free enought to cry with me. Last night I held you while you cried, For I knew not what else to do, But comfort you and hold you close, And give you all the love you need. Last night I dreamt of you...somehow. And you were crying in my dreams. But when I awoke this mourning. I found you were far away. Sometimes a sadness fills my heart, It overwhelms at times like these, When I cannot reach out my hand, And draw you close to me. ...................................... Last night I felt you hold me, As I cried inside your dreams. There is someone out there... a soulmate that you are connected to... although you may not know his name or even see his face clearly now.... he is thinking of you just as you are thinking of him... Cherish the good memories past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. |

Karen, I'm sure he receives your love deep into his soul. And I must believe that he also send you his. Your spirits are always together. In God's own dimension, not seen on earth. ![]() ((Karen)) -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |

Hello, Karen. I just read "I Weave" and it was so sad I couldn't comment. But this is much more upbeat. Here's hoping you find your unknown valentine. |
