Cover Me

I long, I yearn as my skin lay bare

And cold covers my soul

 

Succumbed to the harsh elements

I breathe in the idea of you

 

The dream that haunts me

The beat of my desire

 

To envision your strength

As a refuge of my suffering

 

Your warmth to cover me

Melting my reserve

In a world where love and eroticism is normaly portrayed quite graphically, this is a wonderfuly loving and erotic work that leaves much to the immagination, and is frankly refreshing and a joy to read. Marvelously written. Thank you for posting it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this a Ghazal piece?

Whether or not it is I think it's a beautiful write. Dark yet romantic, with an easy and pleasant flow. Formatting is great too.

Good job :)

If my poem reflects what a man should be, then this piece is exactly what I love in a woman. Strong yet so very needing. This is my favorite read in a long time. Love your style.

What I like here is the strong, sparse and powerful imagery, which proves (I think) my point that good poetry needs just a few, well chosen images to work well.
A fine poem.

Beautiful words.

Your poem expresses a heartbeat and the shades of thought within a moment's desire.

Truly a matching of want and reverie.

Nicely done..
