#291 I Describe You As Beautiful

I describe you as beautiful Within the silent amber glow of the sun I watch as you pose to the heavens Outstretched to claim the breeze as your own Touching softly the coming night To bring beauty into the dark. ~ My desire is to hold you close to my heart Yet as I stare at you deeply I see, Yours is a beauty forbidden To my senses do you offer me touch Intensely you stir within me All the needed love to live. ~ The scent of you caresses me As you move the emotions of my soul Clearing my mind of want Removing the hazy shade of blindness As truth overwhelms my eyes to tears Allowing me to see the beauty of our world. ~ Is there not a word to describe, The feeling of together between nature and me? As if time flows from within the soul Like a breeze that moves the essence of love Capturing every particle of life Connecting the infinite souls to love as one. ~ The blink of my eye retraces the path A return to my singular existence I now have the understanding of your power The reason you are forbidden to hold You are the truth of all things living Holding the thorns of death. ~ Within you is the knowledge of love and time One soul could not bare your truth Nor hold the nature you possess I stare at you in tearful awe Only one description can I give to your being I describe you as beautiful. ~ By: Darren J McMurray June 30, 2009
