What I need

What I need

A Poem by LifeInPoetry

I need to give you all I am,

although I'm yet to find what that is.

I need worlds to stop when you take my hand,

And time to cease to exist.

I need it all and all that you are,

The serenity of your innocence.

I need to know that however far we part,

I can solely rely on your continuance.

I need to know that your mind will be lightened,

When we are separate and I am alone,

You see I am so inevitably frightened,

How missing you can weigh down my bones.

I need you in my darkest times,

When the waters thick and the air is thin.

I need to know you will be surfaced by my side,

Because my demons know how to swim.

I need to know you'll be in my sight,

The moment I begin calling.

You see I am so very afraid of heights,

But I can't stop myself from falling.

I need to know of what we are and what we are still to be,

So separately, independently combined.

You know you are you and I am me,

Although our souls have effortlessly intertwined.

Once again, i've founded much emotions and love in your this poem

Replace it, "I need WORDS OR WORLD to stop when you take my hand" with "I need WORDS OR WORLD to stop when you take my hand" Overall is good. I love reading your this piece too. I think, I love your working style, your write from the heart, all your needs, wills you penned into express through the words. Lovely poem, your heart's warm, keep it always warm as fire.

Keep on!

Beautiful indeed.

I so enjoy a good love poem steeped in longing and desire. I do believe my favorite lines are the last four. Again, well done.
