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. :)

You gave me the image of a fair maiden staring out of the window of a beautiful stone castle at the ocean below...and a glass bottle with a letter inside being carried in by the waves.. Lovely work.

At some point we both shared a similar muse, a hurricane!

The more I read this, the more it flips me out! Stunning and gorgeous; beautiful beyond words. Nice one Neva. Will need to read a load more now!

This is a melody, a song, a song of natures beauty by the sea...

Not a word out of place. Not a line without weight and meaning. Poetry 101. How it should be done. Crafted, not rushed. Perfect
