A Lover Remembered

Writtem By Ryland Joshua Matthews For Contest: Sentimental Love Letters Hosted By Poet: Audrey Carey _______________________________________________________________ A Lover Remembered Sometimes I think, sometimes I wander In my mind I often ponder Where I would be, what I would do If God forbid, I ever lost you No matter how long, no matter the distance Id travel that road to the end of existence To feel once again that comforting place Wrapped in your arms, a loving embrace There are these things to witch I hold true The seven great reasons I could never forget you. The touch of your hand. The slightest caress. In the heat of your kiss I know I’ve been blessed Your taste is of honey that is fresh from the comb Reminding me of solace, the tranquility of home Your eyes so serene, in comfort I dwell The moment I saw them, in love with you I fell. Around you of Jasmine, the smell I remember Erasing the fear, to you I surrender The skin of an angel, through my hands I can feel The unbridled passion, this has to be real. The waves of your hair, in dark amber it keeps me Locked at your side is where I truly wish to be Never more daunted by the shackles of time To me God gave you, and to you all that is mine The End

An eternal bliss whenever she is around you, never a single moment that she's out of sight of you with your clear image of her in your heart and mind. Congratulations, Ryland on your well deserved win on this contest of Audrey Carey. (^_^) Noel.

Lovely couplets with the best description of longing and saddness. And the pain of being without. Ryland, hope you never lose this person that complete you. You would be so torn apart, out of the wonderful gift God, gave you in your soulmate. Loved and enjoyed your poem,..p.d.
