Angela

We can fall so low and deep. Need someone to pull us up to see daylight.

            Angela

 
Her beauty had lessen with time.
The circle of darkness surrounded her beautiful blue eyes.
Lack of sleep and proper diet.
Left her beaten, betrayed and dreams limited to daily survival.
In her 21 years of life.


Her blue eyes brought me to her.
Her long legs that went on for miles.
Were still temptation for the soul wanting too little now.

 
Her fearless eyes turn soft as she tremble in the face of tenderness.
I told her please please stay with me. We will have no secrets.

 
"I have been living on borrow kisses, loan embraces and leased love.
I whisper I have been waiting for you."

 
"We have nothing to lose.
All we have is painful and harsh desires that brought us together."

 
Sweet Angela looked into my eyes.
Searching.


She told me "I'm dirty with sin.
I have abandon all who have tried to love me.
I don't deserve you."
Her hand held my hand so tightly as she spoke.

 
I whispered " My fallen Angel.
There are few saints anyway.
I will take you places you have never been.
We will walk on long beaches.
Drink wine and talk till the sun falls into the sea.
I will hold you like you were my first love."

 
When the dusk came.
We ate  and talked.
Felled on my soft bed.
I told her "All we have is the desire of pleasure left.
I will find your secret softness. Make you feel wanted and alive.

 
I  whispered a liar prayer.
Told her how beautiful and wonderful she was.
 I  explored her with delight and discover all her  hidden secrets.

 
I looked into  her blue eyes as her slender body move over my flesh.
 A small tear appeared in her eyes.
She whispered  "I will leave before the morning light."

 
I smile and caressed her beautiful face.
Whispered " We have lost nothing.
I just wanted to see your smile and hear your voice."

 
"I will be here when you need me."
Angela kissed me and lays her head into my chest.

When we fall down so low. Someone must pull us back and show us the way to peace and happiness again.

Sometimes in life you fall and sometimes you are just lucky enough to have that special someone who helps you along. I loved the lines:
"I have been living on borrow kisses, loan embraces and leased love.
I whisper I have been waiting for you."
Beautifully written. Loved it.

You have an amazing line in this poem I have been living on borrowed kisses, loan embraces, and leased love. You just described the millions of relationships many are living today. Very powerful and true line! This line spoke to millions and we say, thank you my friend.

While reading this poem, I actually thought of someone that I love dearly. Perhaps the only person I love, other than my sisters. No matter how sad this poem is in a way, it is also peaceful, subtle enough to leave you thinking but strong enough to get your heart longing. I haven't seen my love in over a year but we talk constantly and he has been there for me no matter what. I owe my life to him and this poem reminds me of the love him and I share... Something beyond the love of romantics or the title "boyfriend and girlfriend." Something without that physical (in some cases sinnful) desire... The innocent kind of love. That's what this reminds me of. Something this world needs more of.

[Nayan]

True!

So true for somone who is longing so much for one real love!

"I have been living on borrow kisses, loan embraces and leased love.
I whisper I have been waiting for you."

If at a moment, a person can think all pure, he is a saint!

"I whisper my fallen Angel.
There are few saints anyway."

And these lines are so true! Everything thats blossoms so beautifully... gradually fades!!!

"Her beauty has lessen with time.
The circle of darkness surround her beautiful blue eyes."

Thanks Coyote for such a nice piece!

"There are few saints anyway."

[Nancy Lee Shrader]

Sad and beautiful all at the same time. Well Done!!!

[Huggy Bear]

The poem is a great piece. It is one of the best pieces you have written. Great Job!

[Dia-EchoingWind]

I liked the flow of this piece, a little long for the format i think, It kinda sounds like a short storie instead of a poem, but free verse fits it as well so I really liked it -great job-Keep writing!!

"I have been living on borrow kisses, loan embraces and leased love."
I especially loved this line. Love is so complicated.
