her depths miss your hands
always reaching in
breathing the passion
that dwelled just beneath the surface of you.
It seems that life is in the way
obligations sinks the total magic of two
and you both hold your heads
just above the surface of stagnating water
hoping, one day
to reach better bodies of love
and to float there in the bliss of settling peace.
there could be no worse sadness
than two meant to be hearts
that never get to touch.

How grave is my condition, for I cannot find the words to say, I need you so.

The heart of you

Indeed my friend, there is none like this.  But, soon, all hearts touch.

Thank you.

What light through yon window breaks?  It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.

I think someday meant to be hearts will get to touch.  James

these words speak for many. . . and again, show the depth of feeling in your work. . .

well done. . .

(big hugggsssssss) I know just how you feel, sweet friend, I am in love with the girl of my dreams, yet me and my RosePetal live far apart and I pray that we meet for I can not imagine a world without her! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderfully heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jenn, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

One day, I agree with this...the next I wonder the cost of risk.  Think I will save this.  Thanks.

Past the obligation of life, hearts touch I know... otherwise you wouldn't have written this poem.  Very thought filled writing..touching me.

Why, but should fate stand in one's way
a thumb's up or down, she is always fey
A power unflexed, scarcely dreamed of
This power of desire. . .is the power of Love.

Words you write
that are meant to be
and still may be realized.  Sweetly but sadly said well.
