Yet Again  Tonight!!!

Yet Again Tonight!!!

A Poem by Ujjwal Ankur
"

I wrote this one for my girlfriend this valentine :)

"
The night grows gloomier, loneliness-no bound,
in the dead of silence, I hear a faint sound,
my mind grows anxious, to know what I've found,
is that you? Lurking around?

My heart skips a beat, this can't be true,
I've been a non-believer, an atheist too,
how could you be here? I really have no clue,
but finally seems like, all the prayers went through.

Your body glows bright, your face-so serene,
I stand there dazzled, bathing in your sheen,
distant, demented and longing I've been,
I've waited enough, please hold me, my Queen.

You fill me in your arms, so much love, so much care,
unbreakable it is, this bond that we share,
for when I am with you, my soul lies bare,
on the seventh heaven? I'm already past there.

I used to be a commoner, eat, sleep-repeat,
love and devotion, for me were obsolete,
and then you came along, so tender, so sweet,
thank you, my love, for now I'm complete.

Elysian and divine, from a wand a magic cast,
you wake me from my slumber, and raise me on the mast,
winds of change follow, blemishes by me past,
yes, you're my savior, and I'm saved, at last.

From the ashes of the past, you've raised a better man,
taught him how to love, much more than any can,
you've always been with me, all directions that I ran,
for I see only you, as far as I can span.

I get lost in them, those lovely dark eyes,
your smile is so lustrous, my only sunrise,
to me you're a goddess, Aphrodite in disguise,
My very own love, My very own prize.

We sing, we laugh, we dance, with you I can be me,
frivolous and a klutz, as much as I can be,
you teach it how to fly, and my soul flies free,
I lie in paradise, and you're it's entry.

Floating in your arms, seems centuries have flied,
the night grows older, the rule it's to abide,
I ask you O' Destiny, in what you take your pride?
Two bodies you may part, a soul can you divide?

Apollo inches closer-fierce, his sword drawn,
a haggard night crumbles, a new dawn is born,
like the life cycle, you end your brief sojourn,
a moment-you're here, another-you're gone.

Facing the blaze, a lonely morning bright,
left standing there alone, alone in my plight,
I smile a faint smile, heaps of grief despite,
see you soon, my love, yet again tonigh!!!

I do admit that if my boyfriend wrote me this and gave it to me I would melt where I stand, especially this:

"your smile is so lustrous, my only sunrise,to me you're a goddess, Aphrodite in disguise"

It was a very lovely poem and I'm sure she appreciated it very much. :) I don't know if you noticed, but you missed a t at the end of "tonight" in the last line :P. And all I can say is maybe try writing without rhyming, because it'll give you more freedom to write what you want. The words chosen here work very well, but all I'm saying is try it with some others, it helped me out :) I love this one rhymed just like this though. Good work :D

Good words: speak volumes about your vocabulary .. but the rhyme rings a tad more than desired. Try to go with the flow, without making a deliberate effort to rhyme each couplet .. Rhythm is more integral to poetry than rhyme. Sometimes, at least.
Good attempt at foraying into a territory yet unexplored, though :)
