My lady

A old poem written by a sad heart.

                               My lady

My lady,
I still cry out in sweet dreams your name.

So long since our lips had touched.
I still wish upon a star,
 to be able to look into your eyes.

I wish to awake with your body near.
To put my face into your long blond hair.
Be intoxicated by my love for you.

I wish to hold your tender hands on a walk by the lake.
Two  young titans with love as our shield.

My lady of joy and happiness.
Allow me to remember you sweetly.
For only in your arms did I feel complete.

Salvation I cannot find.
The knife of disappointment is cutting away my tenderness.
Your love is the only loss I can't get over.

My lady,
dressed in white.
Your long blond hair flowing in in the gentle breeze.
I dreamed you were whispering.
"I will only love you."

I have tried to erase your memory.
The memory is tattoos on my heart.
Paradise is rarely touched in a life.

Youth is the greatest high.
We were babies making great dreams happen.
Paradise of candles and the heat of love.
I didn't know sweet dreams would break my heart forever.

My lady of tenderness.
Your beautiful face will not be forgotten.
You were my first true love.

A sweet memory upon a old heart today.

this was really really sweet work, loved this. absolutely beautiful poem, you've poured out all your feelings into this one, and that made this poem truly special. great job

[Zoe Jay]

Oh, this is a beautiful love poem. Absolutely classic style. This feels very intimate, and very real. It's a perfect blend of romance and tragedy. It is tenderly and thoughtfully written with delicate word choices. I love your very dressed down, very immediate style of writing, it's deeply personal, and very affecting and involving for the reader. Your poetry has a lot of substance, and there's great storytelling in everything you write. Your sentiments in this are just beautiful. I like the structure too, it breaks up the intensity of the thought flow.

[Tina Kline]

Beautiful and sad too, I really feel the emotions of this one. Reading this brought tears to my eyes. For some there is that one special person they will never forget, who will never dim with time. One great love.

[KATHY SUE SILLS]

Such tender words that spilled out this sad poem! Touched my heart!

[Linear]

It's a dream most of us have dreamed, that first love, so perfect, so chaste and so delicate, but somehow we let it go we did not know.

gorgeous poem, it hit me

[Norma M Sutton]

Sad and beautiful

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

It's truly remarkable how open you were with this one.
The humility of your words is more powerful than any
hurtful worlds you could ever muster.

Amazing work!
