Essential

 

 

Do you remember when we used to meet at our own special place?

I would wait there impatiently, just wanting to see your face.

All day I would think about you, the only face in the crowd

And then you would appear through the unknown faces,

Like a gift from the clouds.

 

 

Down you would float and I would kneel and offer you my love,

Because I could not stand to see you with another.

There are times when we would be alone together sharing a hug

And I could picture the two of us growing older together.

 

 

And when I am old, to me you would still be as beautiful,

Because I would still see you as the woman I met so long ago.

I imagined telling you that at last I can be hopeful,

Because you gave me hope that day, for always,

Because you are my hope.

 

 

I waited for you like the summer in winter;

I longed for you like a man dying of thirst in a desert.

You are the nectar to the bee and the wedding ring for the finger.

You are all I could aspire to attain, my poetic verse.

 

 

You inspire me to love like Casanova on his wedding day;

I need to change my very essence to bend to your will.

Let all who hear of me know of your name,

Because you are the only cure I have when our love life becomes ill.

 

 

No argument must end all the love we share with each other.

No man can come between what the two of us have.

No woman can lure me away from you, my perfect lover,

Because your love makes me happy and I wish to never again be sad.

            Thank you, but I cannot always be amazing. I shall upload a lesser poem and see what people think of that.

            Such an amazingly powerful poem, as I myself tend not to write of love it makes it all the more special when I am able to experience the emotions through the great work of others. Well done for your brilliant job at describing the sublime xx

              A poet who doesn't write about love? Consider me confused. Love is the most inspirational thing there is...Thank you for the comment and I hope you find the Peace, love and empathy you need to inspire you to talk of it.
