So This is Love

Accidental Poet



 So This is Love

 

As your beauty devoured me

Surrounded and absorbed me

I’ll follow you affectionately

Adore you gladly

 

You radiate like the sunrise

Pull on my heart like the moonrise

My voice paralyzed

My eyes in paradise

 

What new force is this

This ecstasy within my heart

I pray to God

This is only the start

 

Her eyes beyond compare

Her smile that pulls on my stare

The color and shape of her hair

Her name of Sharon my heart wears

 

To kiss her lips of wine

Would be a pleasure oh so fine

For her to hold the heart of mine

Long past the end of all time

 

I’ve never felt this way before

Never known I could feel like this

Like everything else out of focus

Just Sharon, me and certain bliss

 

I know I’m only ten years old

And too soon to be so bold

But she’s a treasure greater than gold

Hook, line and sinker I’m sold

 

It’s been only seconds

Since I first saw her face

First walked through those doors

To my heart’s euphoric place

 

A gift from stars above

She surrounds my heart like a glove

Now I know what they speak of

So this is love

      Sweet that feeling of love in childhood, I hope this was not your only true love in life , but just your first ....a very beautiful poem

        Thanks WL, and yes, Sharon has been my only true love, and it was one sided. She moved across country to LA at the end of 8th grade. So Sharon was my first and my last.
