Composed

like the undersong of mind
every thought sings of you
the sweetest melody

i long to be
your greatest lyric
fallen on ivory sheets

be the strings
beneath the caress
of your fingers
as you strum
a euphony

feel the beat
echo through my heart
as your rhythm carries me
into the depths of harmony

i want to be
the whispered words
sung from your lips
until they meet with mine
in a hush of silence

then linger
in your mind
like a song
you've sung
a thousand times
but can never forget
the lyrics to

This has a lyrical sense about it. "I long to be your greatest lyric fallen on ivory sheets" = fabulous imagery.

The sweetest song I could imagine. You have composed a beautifully lyrical poem that sings of love and deep desire my friend. Your words have melodically touched this musicians heart in the most magical way. Beautiful Sandy, simply beautiful. Sigh.
