A Love Letter

For Daniel

To my dearest love and keeper of my soul,

It's been another long day without you
I swear to you it's cruel
I wish that I could have spent my day with you
Instead of meandering about like a fool

Well, the sky was the same old blue
And the grass is forever green
But I'm tired of days without you
And I'm sick of this same old scene

Oh how Id love to spend my hours in your arms
Staring up at you as I lay on your chest
Id rather spend one day alive with you like this
Then a thousand alone like all the rest

So now, I'm writing you this letter
From much to far away
To ask you simply, if I may come home
And forever in your arms, stay.

Maybe Someday I'll get up the courage to show him this

It's quite good. It's not the best love poem I've read, but it *is* hard to beat William Shakespeare�

[Last Lying Look]

[Suffer In Silence]

[Enigma]

OMG!! That was amazing!! Simply outstanding....*sighs*
One of the most beautiful romantic pieces I've read till date. What strikes me is the simpicity of this. It's so simple and yet, so touching. I could sense the screen behind turning a little pick and hearts dropping down the sky and sweet music flowing in the background...
Sheesh!! Lolz...
Reading your waork sure make my imagination go wild.
It was brilliant, Courtney!!Simply....WOW!!!

I don't normally read love poems. They usually make me feel sick of myself. But this one was simple, and straight to the point skipping the drab over used cliche similes and metaphors. I liked it because of simplicity. Very nice :D

[Kaleidoscope Apocalypse]

This was a very sweet poem.

The only real problems that I can see, and you'll have to forgive for this, as I am a stickler for such things, is this;

"Then a thousand alone like all the rest" 'Then' should be 'Than'

and,

"From much to far away" 'to' should be 'too'

Something else, too.. Perhaps word your last sentence as this, "And stay forever in your arms." as it would no longer interrupt the flow of the poem, but rather add to it.

I do not mean to nitpick and as this is your poem, you can simply ignore me act as though I never said a word.

I did, however, mean what I said; this is quite a sweet piece. It is full of longing and adoration. Nice write!

Thank you for sharing..
