Loving You.

We met by chance,

And became lovers by choice.

I’ll still remember our first kiss,

Long after you’ve forgotten our last.

 

I stay awake to watch you sleep,

Lingering in the aftermath of your touch.

The moon and its mistress watch in anticipation

As I smoulder in the heated bliss that is you.

 

Your touch burns with desire

And I hear you whisper

“never mind the darkness love,

that’s where the stars shine brightest”

 

Our emotions take motion

plunging to depths I have never known

we become one, I melt in the ecstasy of your embrace

and I lose myself in the adventure of loving you..

I will be brutally honest. When I saw the stock photo I thought 'oh Bugger. Erotic drivel'. Based upon the ammount of erotic writers who use stock photo's to titilate.

Miss. I am a moron.

I am a moron, because, had I followed my original impulse to move onto another poem of yours I would have missed a truly beautiful and heart lifting poem. I am a moron, for not engaging from the very start with the sheer love that shines through every line of this work. I am a moron for nearly missing another truly wonderful work.

Not only is it a wonderful poem of love, it is an exceptionally well written poem of love. Rarer than you might think. It is very difficult to sum up a moment, more so to encapsulate an emotion. You have done both. Superb work. You are a gifted artist.

I am still a moron, but learning

[Jvonne]

Thank you. You are right about the image I decided to use though. But I guess we are both still learning. Thanks again.

On reflection, the image does work. The problem is not your use, but the overuse by second rate erotica. Sorry if that sounds harsh. I would keep the image. And it is a superb work

This is praise any man would love to receive. If they weren't confident before, they are now. On a serious note, well written. Kept me reading it through to the end.

Whoever he is, he's a lucky guy to have a woman with such love and admiration for him, along with a deep passion. This sounds like a love letter I would be flattered to recieve from someone who cares that much. A nice job.

[Liderien]

I can so relate to this indeed. Thank you

[Distant horizons]

Oh my. Perfectly captured. Beautifully done.

[Kyle]

This is sweet...sweet....sweet...

I love the feelings and emotions expressed here!

"never mind the darkness love,
That's where the stars shine brightest"

Fave line.

All consuming and passionate love - very dangerous, and irresistible.

[John Fitzgerald]

brilliant. highly charged yet sweet, a woman of love-scented curiosty. The line, Never mind the darkness, has ordered dinner and sat down in my brains to eat! :)

[Michael of Gilead]

Really well written. Any man would and should be estatic if they could move a woman like this.

I have but one question, the tense...In the first stanza you are alluding to him in the possible past tense, yet everything else is written in present tense?

It's a small nitpick of a fine poem :)
