POETRY: OH HOW I LOVE THEE

Blanketed in 
the envelope of your arms 
The essence of you 
Abides in my soul 
A long forgotten 
Joyous quatrain 
escapes my lips 
In quintessent harmony 
we sing 
Melding in a renaissance 
of spectral emotions 
Lifting our voices to
the canyons of the universe 
In perpetual illumination
of our souls 
I long to softly lay forever
huddled with you 
Content in this 
sensuous silken cocoon 
Inhaling whispered words 
The essence of all that is us 
Gently kissed 
In an infinite aria



2


The feel of your warm soft flesh.
The rise and fall of your breasts.
The gentle sound that escapes your lips.
The ever so slight movement of your
fingertips.
As you lay there, gently sleeping, 
facing me, I realize that no greater love 
could ever be.
I hold you close and stroke your hair.
I tell you in a soft sweet whisper,
I'll always be here.

A sweet kiss, a gentle touch 
That meant a lot to me- I can never get enough.

The soft touch of your sweet and loving hands
That will forever stay with me... until the end.

A sweet kiss that will forever stay 
A kiss I will think of each and every night and day.

The unforgettable words you whispered softly in my ear
You said I will always stay with you, I will always be right here.

That soft and sweet smell you hold on yourself
Makes me only want to be with you and not anybody else.

Those soft and tasty lips you have and I enjoy
Will be mine for always and forever, I will kiss them with much joy.

That person I love, that person I adore... is you
And I want for us to stay together and together say, "I DO."

It's when you want more than anything, 
to be with that person every second of everyday 
for the rest of your life.

It's when you know that no matter what, 
no matter how many fights 
and no matter to what the degree a fight may be, 
that you will never tire of being with that person.


It's the feeling you get when you're near the person, 
that you know what love is.


It's to know, that when they are old and out colored, 
you will love them with the same passion, 
and intense feelings as the day you knew you loved them.

Oh how I love thee,
I shall tell the world,
The girl who stole my heart,
I dare not take it back,
For if I do, I shall die in agony.



6

For so long now, 
In vain
I have searched
The world over
For words 
Which elude me.

Words
To capture 
The essence,
The wonder,
The matchless beauty
Of heaven.

But never before tonight
Had I touched you,
And never before
(I swear this...!)
Have I ever felt so close.

Tonight 
I touched heaven.
I kissed it.
I breathed in its magic,
And 
For one shining moment,
All of
Heaven and earth stood still
While I,
Mere man,
Discovered a splendor 
One cannot 
Begin to imagine...

Yes,
Tonight 
All the universe
Was mine...
I found heaven
And
She was mine to hold.

the sun's soft rays danced on her skin
kissing her body whereever it could
the air blushing when embracing her
the feeling of warmth, of love of her

stars, envious of the play of light
that glistened in her smile the night before
and eyes showing me the wonders
and the dangers that are mine to journey in

the four winds could be heard
fighting amongst themselves, wantonly
and undisciplined
making for a blustery day
wanting to love her like the sun, air, and stars

then came the rain, pushing through
as if it thought it could get closer than the rest
the earth itself was in a state of euphoria
feeling her lay upon it
and holding her as close as possible

I happened along that day 
and found her resting there,
angelic in appearance,
and with all of nature's glory encompassing her

as bees to the sweet flower's nectar
I kissed her, held her, and spirited her off
even Time, when hearing of this,
stood still... if only for a moment.


8


So let it be that our lives
are but specks in the 
vastness of eternity.

Yet, it cannot be said 
that I have lived in vain. 

For the love I bear for thee
is greater than any force of nature.

If horses had wings
and dreams could come true
I'd take the first flight
soaring the skies
to be with you...
If I could be the blowing wind
I'd brush myself against your face
to feel and touch you once again...
If I could be your inner voice
I'd feel the echoes of my name...
If all the days just pass me by
not seeing you by my side
I'd take that too in my stride...
If the world would stop revolving
and we were rounded on a timeless spot,
that time would be worth a hundred years.
Hand in hand...with our eyes to speak
volumes of unspoken words...
of a bond...so greatly chained
and yet so free.
We'll remain alive forever 
under the power of our endless love...




10

I listen to the soft gentle flow of your voice,
Your words touching deep inside my soul ...
Intensely searching, longing to feel
the rhythm of our hearts beating as one ...
Time stands still for the love we have suddenly discovered, 
the sunlight has cast our shadows side by side for eternity ...
As we journey through life's passage,
the depth of our love is unmeasured.
But for a few brief moments together, 
we long to explore and trace patterns of our love upon our souls, 
writing memories of once penned thoughts 
and emotions for the eternal bliss of a lifetime as one ...
I love you for who you are and for the
tenderness of your love that completes me.

11

Young love, so simple and yet so sweet
Touched you and made you feel complete
But heartache found its way to your door
And your once solid heart began to crumble

For fear of pain, you never opened 
The door to your heart, not even for love
But you have grown tired of your misery
And began longing for that somebody

Tonight as you looked into the sky
I saw tiny teardrops fall from your eyes
I heard you utter a silent plea
A lonely heart's cry that haunted me

And now as you searched among the stars
For someone to heal your battle scars
I silently begged for heaven's mercy
Dear God, please let it be me

Let me be the one to wipe away your tears
Let me be the one to take away your fears
Let me tell you that you're special in every way
That I long to be with you everyday

All the stars are bright tonight
So, it took you forever to decide
Maybe you're blind or just refused to see
Because you just looked right through me

Now, the nearness of you reminds me how far you really are
I have to accept, no matter how painful, no matter how hard
Maybe you'll never look at me the way I want you to
But I still would shine forever just for you


12

Is it the earth I love so dearly?
Or, are you, who roams upon it, whom I adore?

Is it light that I love so much?
Or, is it you who I see with the light whom I adore?

Is it laughter that turns me on so much.
Or, is the one who makes the laughter that I adore?

Is it words that I love and cherish?
Or, is it who speaks the words that I adore?
