I Imagine You

I imagine you softly Like a sound on the air The touch of your hand The smell of your hair... I imagine your voice Gentle with the night I hear in it the courage The laughter and the light... I imagine your eyes all the love they hold I see in them redemption the pain you never told... I imagine your body The heat from your skin I imagine your embrace I imagine it again... I imagine you The way you imagine me, I imagined you today Imagining me...

Truly made me smile when I got to the last stanza, Matt !! Wonderful writing and a very well-deserved selection to be a feature this week at the Soup. Congratulations!

This is one of your better poems in my opinion. The first stanza helps lead into the body of the poem with a generalization, and your imagery is excellent, but the last stanza's third and fourth lines don't seem right. They almost seem to repeat the first part of the stanza.
