Forever

A Poem by Melanie Nicole
"

Inspired by an ex boyfriend. Not much else. Make of it what you will.

"
Your arms around my shoulder, in seeps the heat;
I feel love and a blanket of protection so sweet.

Grabbing my hand as naturally as breathing;
My love, please tell me you are never leaving.

I know it's cliche, but I pull you into the rain;
I kiss and kiss you-- how could I refrain? 

You put your hands on either side of my face;
Look me in the eyes and say "You, I could never replace."

I now know what romance novels mean;
My children need your blue eyed gene.

All night you talk and listen on the phone;
Your voice on the other end reminds me I'm not alone.

We lay in the park and pick out shapes in the clouds;
Whispering and giggling oblivious to the crowds.

I cry on your pillow and worry all day;
You hold me close and promise it's okay.

Looking so deep into my eyes I am scared;
Against you, everyone will pail when compared. 

Brush your lips so beautifully across mine;
You are my love, so wonderfully divine. 

Remind me again, how do I breathe? 
I pray to God daily that you won't leave.

Lay your head in my lap and watch this movie with me;
I'll stroke your hair, you'll say "I love you," and I will agree.

I love you;
I always will, too.

Author's Note

Melanie Nicole
This was inspired by my first (and recently ex) boyfriend.
I would enjoy any critiquing.
I always feel like I really suck at writing, but whatever.

This poem is beautiful, and the lines are great. However, I'm not feeling the flow of the words that much. I think it could be that some of the rhyming feels a little forced...

You don't suck! You're really good at putting emotion into your writing.
Also.. I thought this was kind of funny; "My children need your blue eyed gene."
hehe :)
