Are You Still With Me

 

 

 

Dreams in ivory midnight skies,

A gazing glow through my window pane.

In the silence, your whispers gently

Flow in the soft breezes of emptiness.

 

I feel your fingertips carassing my cheeks

Slowly combing through my hair

As I enter into my own reality,

A world where there is only me and you.

 

I hear your gentle spoken voice

Echoing stings in my broken heart.

The pieces that forever lay broken,

A missing piece, never to be replaced.

 

Like a ghost, you linger in the shadows

Mourning for me as I have mourned for you,

To feel the embrace of our reality

And share each other's moments once more.

 

My heart yearns to hear your voice,

To see the smiling face that holds my dreams

Sleepless and broken, it screams for you

Wondering if you're still here with me.

[La Belle Dame Sans Merc..]

Oxymoron adjectives and juxtaposing imagery. The emotion is there but inadequately captured with your choice of word. More confessional prose then anything. I think the first stanza is too melodramatic.

[Cascara (aka Sprint Goe..]

this is such a passionate write

[Poetic Beauty]

When two separates that make a whole are in different locations it makes them long with a yearning that can not be explained. This is stunning work and portrays that emotion completely.

[Sleeping Maiden]

Omg... this really pulls my heart. because it reminds me of death. Like my grandfather who passed away recently.. this makes me cry. But it's a really beautiful poem. =) I love the emotions here. There is this sense of peace but yet the longing for that person you want to see.. oh the ache...

Lovely poem!!! I really love this! it's perfect!

[Angelove]
