Circle of Satisfaction

There is no time, in my eyes,
spent with you
that contain shadows,
warranting hopelessness or a magic potion.
Our sweet water is never lost
in what lays within
the music
streaming from our hands.  

As if in a circle of satisfaction,
we talk in retrospect,
seeking comforting remnants
of what we brought to each others arms.
Measured spaces sit upright
on the shores of who we are,
yet still,
we are the same.

The whispering cries of love and hope
slowly pace
outside our doors.
We smile at memories
ascending to meet them
in the truest beauty.
What more
could we ask for?

Music to our ears so sweet,
is time slipping
where it’s supposed to.
Why would we run and ask for more
knowing one day again
we will be
face to face?

[Plagued Monumentally]

I absolutely love it when people create romantic poems that isn't cheesy and cliche. But then again, isn't all love cliche? Each line you wrote, it was just incredibly beautiful. I could literally see the poetic lines floating throughout the air just like magic. I could tell that this wasn't just personal, but maybe that experienced this as well. If not, not only are you the queen of romance like Lily Mae said, you are also the queen of imagination.

My favorite lines would have to be:
"seeking comforting remnants of what we brought to each others arms."
"our sweet water is never lost in what lays within the music streaming from our hands."
"why would we run and ask for more knowing one day again we will be face to face?"

Keep up the writing, my friend, if I see more of your writing that contains this much romance you'll definitely be one of my favorite writers on this site. :)

I keep coming back to this one, the last day or so. Poetry for the soul and for enjoyments sake. Not cloy sentamentalism, but real and honest. A pure enjoyment start to finish

That circle of satisfaction has to be enough but also there is a case sometimes where the heart will be beating for more. Lovely poem Neva :)

[Poetic Beauty]

You always have a way of painting words on ah blank piece of paper like a painter with their canvas. The flow is smooth and words are tender. I like this poem and you find the most beautiful pieces of artwork to go with them.
