Under the Skies of You

You are all I need,
when you look at me,  I am invincible.  
Hold me closer,
no need to chase,
more than once you have loved me
under the skies of yourself.

A mere whim would never
change my mind
but you wake me up
when your face
searches for release
in my eyes.

You are to the whole of my being
every moment I place
as precious
with the ink of my pen.  

I cannot let a single day go by
without touching the sands
we call ours
when they appear on the shores
of every part of me.  

You are all I need,
when you look at me, I am invincible.  
Hold me closer, your arms whisper
the rhythm of me.  

No need to chase, come and hold me
under the skies of yourself.
I want to linger here
Enclosed
in the love we make.

So sublte, beautiful and enchanting. Speaks of the passion shared by two people and how it makes them feel content, secure and whole.
Wonderful poem. And an equally splendid picture which speaks volumes more about the solitary woman walking down the beach.
A pleasure to read. :)

[Jibin]

[Thea]

Wow! This is really, really romantic!!! I enjoyed reading each and every line...Well done... :)))

In some hands these emotions equate to 'Bunny Boiler', but in yours... You take the ideas and emotions and they leap off the page, making the reader want to be both subject and author. There is no greater ability than to make you read and wish you had done it. Nor have a poem like this written about you. Sheer perfection. Again. And Again.

[Larry Dyson]

Such romance denied...and channeled here in your Muse..love , passion,endurance for the slings and arrows of ..."a love lost and unrequited"..my heart is wound up in your words so invocative of the chance of love .

[PrincessZeldaWannabe]
