Darkness

Some short poetry.

1---   I touched her tattoos on the softness of her skin on her leg.

I tasted her skin and I whispered.

You are a wonder, a mystery and a miracle.

2---  My pretty gal, my softest touch.

You occupy my hopes and my dreams.

In your eyes, I feel warm and magically.

3---  Beneath those beautiful coffee brown eyes.

I can see glimpses of the sea, the sun and the moon.

You are my north star, allowing me know.

Love is safe and kind.

4---  Darkness can overtaked me.

The light of hope had fallen.

Once dreamer is sleeping.

When you want nothing.

What is left?

Dancing Coyote

The feeling of love in this is raw and dedicated. Your choice of songs adds another deep layer, but your writing truly holds it all, nostalgia, the feeling of love, bittersweetness, and sadness. You convey all of these emotions in a way that continuously pulls you in with each piece you write. Thank you for writing so deeply and sharing it with everyone, and I have to say I love the comparison of coffee with brown eyes, that was so smart. My favorite line, though, is 'when you want nothing. What is left?' Beautiful piece, here!

A romantic, sensual love poem with great images; "Coffee brown eyes" really stand out; they are so clear, one can see glimpses of the sea; when darkness overtakes you, and you want nothing, what is left???
good question.
Best, Betty

It is a very good question dear Betty. I have asked often in my lifetime. Thank you for reading and the comment.

Dreams never really sleep. All four of these short poems are ultra-romantic and just lovely, John. Love does guide us. Unfortunately, not always to the right destination! Lydi**

How romantic and breath-taking and inspirational these words are, Coyote.
I hope one day I will inspire that in my future mate.

The north star is poignant.
To have that kind of woman is grace.
Never leave a tattoo untouched.
No matter where it is
