My great love

Pain of love lost must disappear into the wind.

                    My great love

Do we support to love but once?

Where have my ancient lover's gone?

Chain of passion and spiritual journeys leave
me with kind faces in dreams.

Everlasting smiles so rare they scar my heart and mind.

Are we love victims and the heart must die?

If the bleeding is unable to stop.

I believe we need closure to allow the open wound
to fade to a scar.

I remember trembling and soft hands opening the doors
taking the chill of the cold night away.

Cold Winter and rough weather allow the comfort of
two people to find peace for a time.

I remember the comfort of long nights.
Sweet joy of love dances in early morning.
The smell of skin and twisted hair against me.

My wrath took away the sweet memories and opening
of precious love and emotion.

Now sweet love bade me welcome.
My soul cannot see the beauty that dwells in my
sweet lover's eyes.

I sit upon the sand near the Atlantic ocean.
The sea winds is blowing from east to west.

I pray to the sea to allow my spirit to be able
to run free and be clean again.

The night revealed.
Beautiful auburn hair woman come to me.
Whisper we must live to love.

We must dance with the moon and stars.
Allow the sun to open our heart to a new day and beginning.

We will have many great lovers.
Our life is long and we shall be tested.

How we always yearn for our spirit to be free..and as all the beautifully etched lines of your poems express only love can make it free...unlocking the past and floating in the present merging with it's essence.

The phantoms of past, Cruel, So very cruel!
Impacting poetry. I read it twice, so nice.

[Helen Woodward]

It shows! This is akin to some of the greats such as Keats and Browning. You have excelled here, your words bring forth such wonderful images and though some are sad, that is the true way of love for most.
Beautiful poetry!! :-)

... oh ... that is just beautiful ... took me to a place of silence solace ... and ravishing romance ... despite the sadness and disillusionment ... and "wrath" ... this poem meanders gracefully to a place of hope ... an absolutely sublime read ... beautifully written ... it's all heart ...

I thought this one was great

You write with such tender emotion. Well Done My Friend.

I more than like it ..

You write with such a tender heart, covering emotions that many people would hide. Love has many faces, that I'm learning as i get older, seems there are almost too many to appreciate or cope with. From what I read here you feel sad about someone from your past, maybe there's a love that never quite went away .. is that so bad? Surely to have loved like that is better than never having loved with so much passion. Yes, maybe other loves have been diluted but, to have had more than one person touch your heart must be proof your own depth of feeling, means that you have immense love to share. There should be more like you.
