love

autumn just brings back the best memories

i lay cocooned in my blanket
as the cool autumn breeze
shimmied through my window
past my drapes
writing
a poem about love
thinking
i wish he were here
hoping
that this day next year
wouldn't be so lonely

wanting.
you defined it when
i told you what my dreams were
still
still, forever more
love.

Beautiful imagery, and with minimal words you painted a perfect picture of love.

I like how you set the mood in this piece. Its not the standard love poem and that makes it original.
The autumn wind coming through the drapes was a nice touch. Its as if the person is waiting to be renewed
by the Spring and they will emerge a beautiful creation. I like the idea of writing the effects of love and then writing about love directly. Very nice.
