With his song playing softly

I so love violins...

He comes in the darkest of nights

Through the deep wildness of the woods

His song playing softly

Oh how long I have searched for this soft sound drifting on by

That haunting music that so calls to my soul, my heart.

 

Oh the pain it calls.

 

I close my eyes to the waves of music floating towards me

All around me

Swaying, I feel its soft melody bringing me closer, 

to the sweetness that plays

Upon ears of pleasure, soft and surreal 

I feel its magic engulf me deep within.

 

'Oh love' I whisper softly to the breeze that passes..

 

"Hear me', I whimper sadly

 

My heart feels such pain, yet such love.

For never have I wanted such so badly

Then to find the one who holds the key to my soul

My heart of all hearts.

 

My very being like none other before..

 

'Oh, yes!' I sigh, yearning for his touch.

 

I move quietly, towards the soft sounds of love

My hope, need, for in dreams, 

I have seen him.. Felt him.

His lips upon mine so soft, sweet, gentle.

 

'Oh my love..' Tears fall slowly

His song playing softly for my ears alone..

No other, for this I hold true. Deep inside..

 

Then..... 

 

He looks up... Eyes dark as the night.. 

 

He gently smiles.. Then moves slowly

His hands still playing

For me... To me... His eyes tender, for he feels the same

His eyes holds the same look of passion.

 

Just as mine... Yes... Just as mine..

 

In dreams he comes. His song playing softly across the woods.

 

Calling me..

 

Then we are near, our bodies so close that I could see his heart beat.

In echo to my own.

 

Slowly he moves... His hand holding forth his violin towards me.

Then I am holding it.

 

Eyes closed I begin to play. His song

Softly I play into the night, my body moving gently.

 

Oh so gracefully toward its delight, for none other have I felt

We are one, he and I.

 

Together now, and as his lips move towards me, 

I feel his soft touch.

Yes in dreams he comes

My true one calling out to me softly.

 

In the darkness of the night

My heart, soul, all I am within 

This man upon the very wind

And the sweetest of sounds.

 

For he comes to me every night

Like a dream of so long, written upon the wind.

 

 

He shall come to me... It says..

 

With his song softly playing..

[Patches I'm not so new..]

This was written for someone close to your heart That is obvious it is beautifully crafted I can actually feel the music which in my case is much more satisfying than hearing it as that detracts form the beauty of the words as far as I'm concerned (just one my little piccadilleos) All I have said in the past in prase of your writing pertains to this effort as well. You are top o the line as far as I'm concerned ny twin top o the line!

A violin can make any music more alive and strong. Your poem is like a whisper. Amazing story and words. A outstanding poem. Thank you.

You are on fire in this poem. I loved the softness and gentle touches that it had. Nice.

[E.H. Monroe]

I don't know whether to get greased up like an animal and roll around on the floor or be afriad of the possibilites that this can either be love, or death or both.
I love the latter. Your intensity borders of penthouse letters if they actually had class. But the subtext of the violin and following into the darkness as can be the easy representative for death is astounding.

Layers Ms. Mags..Layers. You got em, I like em.

[Emily Filkins]

I think I've read a lot of poems that could make someone cry, or beautifully written..but..this is just, amazing. So very real, you can tell whoever he is, he's very close to your heart and this just made my eyes widen and heart explode reading this. beautiful job
