If there is madness in me.
it is in loving without thought,
or reason
So in love with you
my heart flutters at the
thought of your touch.
Your touch,
an illusion my mind
has sculpted countless times.
A delicate touch
- as gentle as a dew drop
upon a leaf.
Tracing a slow journey
upon veins,
until in suspense of time
it drops...
and I awake
to find
that you,
exist only in my mind...
Love. A simple yet unexplainable emotive rush that floods us with so much more than we can plan in a 24 hour day.
blessin's and happy heartbreak-free holidays my Sistah,

I guess I will mostly agree with Kate Burnside on this one.
I have to...as she stole my thunder.
Kate is great...I admire her work, too...but this piece above,
Chanti...is as smooth as whipped cream...and just as delicious.
Exceptionally beautiful poetry; and even more so, the thoughts within the poetry. Superb crafting and imagery, and in such a short space, you portray such depth of beauty and passionate emotions. -- Jeff
This is just breathless, Chanti! A pure distillation of what romantic love truly is. You take us there, line by line, and I love the way your thoughts link through, like a beautiful daisy-chain. Although you make us aware of the illusory nature of this love, the feelings are so strong and intense that our feelings are gripped right through to the final ellipsis - and beyond. This poem simply transcends itself, as all well-crafted writes should. Simply gorgeous and, as Regis has said, the graphic is a wonderful compliment. TY LOL Kate
Chanti - I am just left reeling from your lavish appreciation of my work, and cannot express just how much your kindness and praise has meant to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart - I KNOW I don't deserve such accolades, but bless you so, so much. XXXXXX
the ambiance of a romantic heart first begins in the mind ...
superb poem!

Sometimes I wonder, if that's where true love, only exists?

Chanti, this is pure poetry at its finest. The raw emotions that poured through my veins as I read this, is well, to put it bluntly, were simply incredible. That’s the true wonders of the mind, for it can bring such momentous moments and vivid visions to life. Stunning write. Bravo.
