Only Two

 

Love at first sight….it sounded so old fashioned

A phrase taken out of the past

and brought into a place

where it should no longer apply.

 

But in the space of a heartbeat

time stood still to let eternity pass

In a single breaths measure

the world around them disappeared

until it held only two

 

They became

two hearts sharing the same rhythm

two breaths mingled into one

two souls joined in unity

 

Their warm kisses burned like fire

Their cool hands kindled flames

flashing across their skin

Leaving little in the aftermath

 

As if in a dream they moved together

In whispers softer than the night

they shared their hearts secrets

Between them they held everything

they had been searching for.

another of those heartfelt romantic writes that just makes me sigh .. remembering that once i was ... that your write can enervate the emotions is itself a testimony to the fact that your words have done justice . keep writing

I sense that depth of love where someone steps out of time and rests as it where in eternity itself. Love this poem.

I love this. I love the imagery of two lovers making fire with just embrace. I especially love the last line

"Between them they held everything

they had been searching for."

That is powerful.

Thats love.
