Give me your hand

Give me your hand, my soul's star,    
and look me in my eyes...

Look how
my heart and soul
embrace you
and dreams are woven
of tender loves,
of beautiful journeys far away,
in the land of love and life...

Look, our whole life
has one sense only...
To love you deeply, 
to be loved by you
and to love
both together,
our children 
and the whole world...

Because, nothing else 
in this world remains
at the end,

except only,
the love and warmth,
we gave and felt,
with a warm embracing,
with a sweet glance,
with many feelings
and with a multitude 
of countless and sweet,
passionate kisses of love...

Helo there dear lnk Empress! Thank you so much for your so good and enthusiastic words! I am so so glad for it... One has really happiness in his/her life when he/she feels and lives the love, as it is expressed in my poem.. With your words you encourage me to continue to live in that way and also you encourage me to write more poems, like this... Thank you again endlessly! Have a nice day!
