There is
beauty in your smile
The kind
that paints color on butterfly wings
Or the
breath of wind that cools on a hot summer day
It lights my
world with magic
A gentle softening
of my heart
Your eyes
tell me your secrets
Hidden within
the seasoned lines of time
Eyes
never lie
They speak
bare truths
Cautious lips
won’t dare say aloud
We play a
game of risk
The pieces
spread across the board
Battle lines
marked and labeled
There is
nothing I want to fight
Just hold me
in your mystic gaze
Hungry to
feel your warm touch
Its gentle
caress upon my guarded soul
The scent of
heaven lingers in my mind
Softly breathing
in your veiled tenderness
I let you
wander, where no one else can go.

Ahhh... a journey of exploration to savor and share. Wonderful! -Dave Raider
ReplyDeleteThank you Dave! Exploration is a wonderful thing. Even if sometimes it's just in our mind.
ReplyDeleteYou are what we call a hopeful romantic. Not only do you hold out hope for yourself, you share it with others.
ReplyDeleteThe final stanza is all encompassing.
Thank you Michael. If there is no hope of love...what would life become? I think for this poet...that would mean certain death. I don't plan on going anywhere any time soon. ;)
DeleteI'm blown away - that was wonderful and so hopeful. Just loving it, my friend
ReplyDeleteThank you Tyler. I am glad to hear you like it. It had a feel of vulnerability to me...not my comfort zone for certain.
DeleteWe love your dark writes, but we also applaud the light. 8 points Earthling
