Here I am alone again Waiting for magical moments This empty beach was our delight Oh how I miss you tonight
Just as the sun disappeared I knew a moment of longing That I could make you appear Let your light take its place How I longed for your face
I dreampt I saw you through A prism of light that I caught From the new moonlight Wanting you with me The way you used to be
Oh moon that pulls oceans tides I'd like to give the waves a ride And have your beam to cover me As you do the eternal sea My love no longer tries to please He treats me like a vapid breeze
I remember being dressed in stars Traveling to galaxies afar Dazzled and dancing in fairyland Keeping love safe hand in hand Now the nights fly by too fleet And nothing left seems as sweet
I hate when that happens, Eileen! This poem screams of longing and of dreams that failed to come true. It is so difficult when we find someone who has us swinging on a star, only to lose them to another dimension. Perhaps it was all in our vision, perhaps they were never as we believed them to be, yet, the love that we allowed our self to feel, seemed so real that we believed it would last forever and that it had always been a part of both of us. The time spent apart becomes a bitter pill of brightly colored memories and our future seems to contain far too much black, white and gray. Outstanding writing, Eileen. This is a fantastic, keeper of a poem.
Take care,
Sherry
Eileen, this should be on page 58 of a romance novel and Nothing Seems As Sweet should be the Chapter. A beautiful dialogue I see here. Yes, a romance novel. You do these so well.
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
