`Unique`

How unique

your chiseled face

   should attract me

 like a smokey fog

     drifing in the midnight air

 

 

How strange

  we're a million miles away

yet, right here and now

  I feel you standing by my side

knowing you care

 

 

How odd

   I barley know you

but known you for a lifetime

  in my dreams

knowing you were always there

 

 

How mesmerized

   I became looking

into your piercing eyes

   which read my soul

and stripped my heart bare

 

 

How enticing

  to be wrapped up in your smile

and longing for the moment

  to be in your arms

with your fingers running thru~my hair

 

 

How unique

  that I should even care.

"How unique that I should even care" echoes long after reading this poem. The last two lines leak history, perhaps pain from a past relationship, someone who caused her to doubt true love. Still, she loves him, even without touch, her heart knows love... but the mind whispers "no" in the shadows of the past. That's what I read and it's a heart-breaker with hope.

This whole poem was splendidly done. the flow is smooth and the words paint a beautiful picture in my mind. The last two lines sum up this poem well and I like them the most of all.

How odd
I barley know you
but known you for a lifetime
in my dreams
knowing you were always there

I really liked this, it seemed faintly disjointed, as if fragments of memory are being pulled together into something more tangible. You have a great rhythm to your writing and it was a good read.
