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.

I adored this. It took my breath away and leaves me a bit speechless. I could feel your pain through this, and since I can relate, I felt my own as well.
Two different pains stirred inside of me as I read this, both the same yet unable to some together, because love has taught them that coming together only leads to having to stand on your own, but I haven't lost hope, and I hope you haven't either. Great write. You are so very talented and I always enjoy reading your work :) It puts a smile on my face, sad or happy, it always stirs my emotions, and that is enough to make me smile :)

it always seems like such a restless spirit runs through your poetry; you express yearning, the past, a connection between two people so well... i like how you incorporate the sea or the ocean into a lot of your work, you make it seem like the waters are haunting you like a lost love... beautiful words, coyote.

Nice write! It has a mystical flavor to it, deep and whispery. Great job.

[blood red skies]

Hm... Has a John Keats feel or someone of the era maybe quite older. I like it by far.

[Huggy Bear]

Powerful work:)

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Epic words of longing and sorrow... letting go of love is the hardest ting to do and no matter how many times you do it never gets easier.

[Chloe..Across the Unive..]

you are streamlining down the highway of creativity here, and the flow took control which can be verified by the form. you should be proud of this poem. a testament to love and the ages.

[Ladysue]

A truly profound write. love these lines as they say so much...

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

An outstanding piece...
