Notes Of Love/Sami Khalil

These words are thoughts, which blossom within my heart,

are also the roses left for you to pick and keep.

I have realized that we never appreciate the seasons of our lives

until it dawns on us that they have escaped our grasp;

For all things have fragility in life, except true love,

it grows stronger by time’s passing.

And all things are mortal, but if I have to live indefinitely,

I would live in a dream which would connect your soul

to mine, without the chaos of our world.

I have rejected all yesteryear's for you longing

 

and hoping for a future dream together.

I also have hoped that in the wee hours,

your illuminated shadow,

will overcome my darkness with a sunrise.

Even if the sun sets over its lonely hill

giving way to a black coal sky,

you can still see the dreamer in me.

And if we are afraid to show this love know that light

will dissipate any darkness or fear.

For this silent love of mine might go unnoticed

but it will always bring a surprise to light.

I have concluded that all things have secrets

except a shared heart,

it whispers love phrases in the open.

I also have found out that it takes a soft breath

to start a fire, just as you started an invisible one within.

And if it takes ink to write love letters, I would rather write

them with my blood flow.

And if I bleed to death, I know that death can change

the mortal moments but not our eternity.

Well I am a curious guy always out there reading all sorts of writes. So today I end up visiting your page. And it was a delight. I always read an initial work of a writer to begin with. ^^ First thoughts on the poem itself. I love the structure and the flow that is maintained throughout the poem is superb. Credit goes to the fine vocabulary you have displayed here. I must also add that they a good job in invoking vivid imagery. This write packed quite the punch. I loved the tone that changes ever so slightly in intervals as the poem proceeds further down. You have expressed a lot of phases and the end had definitely is one I would call fitting. People have already expressed and interpreted about the write here. I understand it as well. Just thought I would share my views on how the flow and tones felt to me as I read it. ^^ Thank you for sharing ^^

Great and strong write projecting love above everything, even keeping it closer to eternity, Taj Mahal by Shajahan, the Jahan the brown who trying to touch the corner of the sleeve of the lover when soldiers are dragging them apart, all make sense, impressed mississippe, congrats

Great poem! Yes the emotion of love is sweet, and it's made all the sweeter by the fact that our brain manufactures pleasurable endorphins as responses to the emotion of love that give us that out of this world feeling. Chocolate does more or less the same thing for most people. Some people are addicted to these endorphins, and thus crave the emotional signal ( love ) that sets them off. That out of this world feeling is somewhat like an out-of-body experience, but it’s just bio-chemistry at work. What would poets and music writers do without love?

This is such an amazing rendition of soul mates....finding one another in a world so dark and deep with secrets is an illuminating gift. Hold tight to her dear friend and together the world will remain bright and warm and we all will catch fire with its smoldering ; burning with love instead of hate.

It definitely takes two dreamers to live love so immortally, despite all our personal fears and feelings, whatever they may be. And as you say that makes love eternal, and gives us mortals something of eternity.This piece gave me a lot to think about. Thanks for sharing:)
