Lost

A Poem by James Mayfield
"

An earlier piece.

"

Lost
I am lost
Lost in the sound of your voice
The melodies of love and longing
And I seek no exit

I am lost
Lost in the gems of your eyes
Treading pathways of light
Reflected with sensitivity and compassion
And I am content to stay

I am lost
Lost in the carress of your lips
Tender desire surrounded by quiet passion
At a loss for words I continue
And I enjoy the stay

I am lost
But I pray I never find my way

The ending felt a bit abrupt to me...your way where? Home, to yourself, freedom? I wasn't sure. A nice poem, but some of the repetitions of the word "lost" given that you also used it in the title seemed a little much, especially since this is such a short piece. Nice flow though.

Your witty metaphor cuts both ways, your poem's ironical content is so well contains it shimmers with complicit vibe and language. Almost like recalling the gothic story of Hansel and Gretel making their way along the lost, lonely woods as they searched for a means back home ... except you prefer remianing that way. Don't we all.

Lovely poem.
Straight from the heart to the heart.
There's a sweet innocence about the way you've expressed yourself.

I loved your repitition of 'I am lost' ...enhances the overall effect of the piece.

This one has such a sweet melody to it. Being enveloped by another Just captured no taken prisoner in their arms.
