This is such an amazing poem on love and longing. So touching in its plea for reassurance. My favorite lines...
"Scribble me into
A place within your
Intriguing beating heart
So I know not all
Was in vain"
Somewhere sad too...because the beloved is intriguing and elusive... Great read. Thanks.

So tender my dear friend, and sublime. You had me on your third stanza:
"Scribble me into
A place within your
Intriguing beating heart
So I know not all
Was in vain"
True love isn't vain, you discribe that so well here,
for it must be loving, and giving, never egoistic.
To be written and even painted by a true love,
Is love, it reaches beyond the surface.
Such a beautiful piece, full of the essence of love, romance,
and selflessness. Great imagery, and words PB, so good to be here again.
You're one of my very favorites!

When truly felt my friend, it goes that deep, when it's felt on the surface of (my metaphor a river), it is lovely but not that sparkling thing, that is called profoundly enoug, if you know what I mean.... sometimes, we just must go through our older pieces, for it can bring such new inspiration.... :D strange but true xx

Yep I understand. I have a friend who speaks four languages and she confuses her words sometimes.

Glad you understand, dear... I speak too many languages, it's very confusing at times :)
such is the use of poetic form and convention to suggest differential
interpretation to words, expression to evoke emotive responses.
devices such as assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia and rhythm,
you achieve a musical, incantatory effects, pure romance, loved this :)
I felt a longing so deep of wanting just once to know that she belongs with him and that he loves her too. Thats what I get from the poem, the woman just wants to know his love is real.
First off I'm on here to post my writing to have an outlet for my emotions. You will find a variety of poems. If you like take a moment and stroll through this poets mind.
Secondly be kind to each .. more..
