Forever Yours

I thought no one would ever possess me
No matter how hard that they tried
But you gave it a go, where no one succeeded
The reason you did, I’ll never know why.

The winds blow me forever towards you
As if you’re the one, I’m having to find
Maybe the answer to all of my problems
Our freeness is superbly entwined.

I think from the moment I saw you
Maybe it was the depth of your smile
Somehow a kindred, someone I wanted
Now life was completely worthwhile.

I’m stronger when ever I’m near you
But I melt in the gaze of your eyes
Magic and motion and endless devotion
Our love is like an endless surprise.

I can see us through to our sunset
Holding hands in the warmth of our flame
Blessing each other, as we’re better together
Always connected, as one and the same.



** Whoop Whoop. My first ever proper love poem!

Thank you Nette. I'll keep reading you more romantic, image laden writers. I hope a wee bit of your magic will rub off.

Cheers white sage, I don't think I'll be schooling teenagers on how to write a poem to pick up the hottest girl at school quite yet though. ; )

Well what do you know! You CAN write romantic poems. The stanza before the last is my favorite one. Great job.

lol I don't think that breaks me into the echelon of love specialists quite yet, more Meatloaf than Tom Jones but it's a start.

Love isn't my specialty subject. I can feel it, see it, read it, but can't seem to write about it...Lol my wife says when it came to courting if I was any slower I would have been glacial. Which is probably right I was absolutely hopeless!!

I was considering posting it as a lyric, the 3rd verse would make a nice chorus. Maybe I'm wrong but I might just get the guitar out and see what comes of it...Thankyou so much for your kind words.
