I Feel You as Soft Touches

The world could dance on the shells of their falsehood with words written in beautiful calligraphy...........

I want to see the thoughts
you breathe,
hear your words and collect them,
cradled in your honesty.
I could watch the beauty in your eyes
for eternity
without ever wishing
to walk away.  

You give me your hand
and I close my eyes,
hear the whisper of the sea
and I remember how my heart
has searched for one
such as you
knowing I have found my home.

My love,
the world could dance
on the shells of their falsehoods
with words
written in beautiful calligraphy
and your words
would continue to run in my veins
like Morse code
tapping out who I am
to me.

You fill my hope chest with your spirit
lifting my head
from the table of where my mind wanders
when I forget
to stop and smell the roses along the way.
Your words
bring precious harmony
into play.

I look through the window of my heart
where you
have pressed your lips
on a photograph of your words
and I feel you as soft touches
on my soul.
I collect them one by one
to remember,
until you again I hold.

My love,

This is beautiful and great use of imagery. It's so romantic. GOD! Makes me wished I had poems like this written for me ;) Great job, dear.

This is beautiful and such romantic intentions, your words ~

I look through the window of my heart
where you
have pressed your lips
on a photograph of your words
and I feel you as soft touches
on my soul.

Breath taking, *sigh* I have no words to express my admiration for one whom pens their heart so tenderly with each perfectly chosen word and phrase. Keep em' coming

PS. I have a better picture for this poem if you would like it, the page is hugging the woman back.

oh my first of all I love that pic.
Oh Neva, you continually amaze me with your writing, your passion.
I love the first stanza,
I want to see the thoughts
you breathe,
hear your words and collect them,
cradled in your honesty.
I could watch the beauty in your eyes
for eternity
without ever wishing
to walk away.

and the last was the very best ending ever.

I look through the window of my heart
where you
have pressed your lips
on a photograph of your words
and I feel you as soft touches
on my soul.
I collect them one by one
to remember,
until you again I hold.

I thought that I would come back to this poem, with brilliant insight and be able to deliver a coherent review, but in reading it again I am again awash with the love and beauty that bombards you from the page, forcing its way into your brain and soul so you can simply walk around with a smile on your face for over an hour.
