My beloved, lend your ear to my plea

Hear, please, of my undying love for thee

A girl am I, of timid, tender years

Vowing words of faithful love in my tears

Could one as you, so valiant, so brave

Find favor in this for which I so crave

That at the center of artistic schemes

You color me as the girl of your dreams

In soft pastel kisses, do paint me in

With tender brushstrokes a love will begin

With every shade of color that you swirl

Paint me and you inside this canvas world

 

Pure elements of love and passion blend

To grow in times eternal, to the end

so when the painting is finally done

You and I will have blended into one.

What dreamy poetry that flows so fluidly from your pen. Absolutely amazing prose.

Absolutely great. So lovely and passionate. It's charged with so much emotion it burns a picture in your mind, that makes you think it is real.
The bit I love the most is:
"That at the center of artistic schemes
You color me as the girl of your dreams"
The rhyming itself is excellent. Never forced and to the point.
Really well written.
