I awoke this morning
to find you
sleeping in my arms
if only in my dreams
when I crawled from my blankets
I still felt you on my skin,
tasted on my lips all the places
they had been...
...and with every single breath lingers
the scent of all your sweetness...
I swear to God above
that if given a pure chance
I would take you in my arms
and love you all my life
It's the simple honesty here that is profound. An excellent poem with depth and beauty. H
I can only repeat what other readers have said about this poem. It's beautiful, Ray. It shows a delicious longing for someone you haven't got... Love, Fran xx
This is one I can definitely appreciate- love is an oddly (im) patient thing!
R, this is simply dreamy. It is where we all want to be. You take us there. In a piece that flows and is memorable. The mark of a fine poet, methinks. t x
