You Know, Bliss

“Let’s run away,”  Her lover said, nibbling on her ear. It was only a whisper, but it felt like a scream “Let’s see the world together, get lost in the beauty Of everything we’ve never seen.” Her lover’s eyes lit up like a child’s  Does when it sees something  Beautiful, like a butterfly.  That’s how they held each other. Like butterflies. They didn’t want to crush The other’s wings And in the same moment Crush each other’s dreams. She looked into her lover’s eyes. She loved the way they shined, Like stars. She touched her long black hair. Like a raven. That was her lover, A bird of flight. Her lover flew high above crowds Waiting on something beautiful to find her. “Come away with me, We can leave all of this behind. Let’s go to that place that’s halfway  Between Euphoria and Ecstasy. You know, Bliss. We can live our lives in each other’s arms.” She smiled and bit her lower lip She pulled her love closer and whispered “I’m already there, lovely.  I am already there. Everywhere you are is perfection. Your every touch brings me to absolute Madness. You are everything I could’ve ever dreamed of And more. I need nothing more than What I’m holding here.” Her lover’s eyes were scared As she heard these words, But her joy creeped across her face And her eyes began to shine again. They fell asleep tangled in each other’s love.

Sweet dreams of love keep us hopeful and content. A beautiful poem. Best hope of Lovers is to escape to discover is what is beyond the next turn. A outstanding poem. Ending was perfect.

"They fell asleep tangled in each other's love." What a beautiful line and a great way to end the poem. I enjoyed it and look forward to reading more.
