    the power of love - not to be too cliche

    fallen
    touch me again with your fingertips
    paint your love letter into my skin
    let your soul sigh my name, set my heart aflame
    then tell me you love me again
     
    the sea of your blue eyes beckons
    I find myself held in their depths
    let me not be afraid to let go of my pain
    and the shame of the tears I have wept
     
    cover me like spring sunshine
    melt my hard winter away
    no more snow, nor cold wind blow
    you are my most perfect day
     
    let our laughter write the harmony
    to smooth the roughest sea
    and glory in love, abandoned
    to the joy that is you and me
     
    let the stars witness in wonder
    a sight uncommonly rare
    as night cloaks the sky, I contented, sigh
    in your arms sleeping safe from despair
     
    so work in my heart your magic
    weave spells that both heal and bind
    the truth of you is now shining through
    I am yours as you are mine
     
    forever can live in one moment
    lost destiny finally calling
    hopes and dreams, come true, it seems
    all I am has completely fallen

    Such a drastic turn around from your previous writing and a beautifully written love poem if ever i've read one! Excellent!

    thanks Bear :) very much!

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
