Poets Embrace

She writes her loss in her past, he writes his hope for the future

She mourns lost love, hands to her face
sees fragile ones, her heart slips pace

I fall through spaces, cracks in this world
throwing romeo, to this heart unfurled

Forever lost on the path of never again
she bleeds black tears out of her pen

Through this atmosphere a torch I become
drawn to her gravity I glow like  the sun

My impossible dreamer writing this way
reliving dark tragedy at the end of her day

So close now I can feel her soft empathy
kindred and soothing, naked in front of me

Giving herself with such passionate heat
deep inside her warmth, I feel so complete

Holding my head to her compassionate breast
listening to loves echos, alive in her chest

Author's Note

the poets never meet in person...

Forever lost on the path of never again

Close but yet so far away, a great theme for a poem a unique story, thanks for adding to PAP

Captivating read. The physical connection is palpable even though they've never met.

So close now I can feel her soft empathy
kindred and soothing, naked in front of me

i think this is a nice look at how poets, even at a distance can be there for each other...there is a closeness as they write themselves together in a mental, emotional and spiritual bond.

like this lots.

So very good and beautiful my friend, your poetry is simply fantastic. Good to come by and read you again... :) For this embrace, there is no need to be close, for platonic love is showed, very profoundly.
You can paint truly with words.

An excellent poem, like the good rhymes and the couplet form.

'Poets Embrace'

A wondefull title for a beautifully penned poem... :o)

I could almost weep for poets such as these; but without the heartbreak where would be the poetry?

[Angel Bluestocking]
