Grasping Love On Valentine's Night Poem by Yassar Ali

Grasping Love On Valentine's Night

Rating: 5.0


Walking blindly in the darkness I saw a light
In graceful human form it lit up the dark night
My eyes couldn't even perceive her identity
But for familiarisation we had the rest of eternity
Illuminating my hollow life with bright fireflies
She looked at me through caramel brown eyes
Dark brown hair covered the sides of her face
Not a single strand of her hair was out of place
Destination reached as we were now face to face
I looked in her eyes to find her past had left it's trace
So much pain was visible in those pretty eyes
Losing control I see my hands begin to rise
Delicately touching her face I see a smile form
Relief visible in her eyes as I bring an end to the storm
Infatuating me as she looks at me in that way
Drunk with love my senses are simply blown away
Looking deep into my eyes she pulled me near
I love you and her name whispered in my ear
Those words were then imprinted on my heart
Holding her body close to mine hoping we never part
Such a flawless body that I give up predicting her age
She looks perfect, I guess the world is her stage
They say that true love at first sight is impossible
But love at first sight on valentines night is possible
Walking with grace to start a home of our own
Each step weaves those dreams that were once torn

Hmmm, how to sum up this poem... intelligent embellishment. The opening two lines of your poem strapped me in for a rollercoaster ride. Not a single word is wasted (except when your 'drunk' - you see what I did there?) absolutley flawless. My praise could go on untill next valentine but I shall sum it up...10/10.
