I Still Believe

Thoughts of you brings me such pleasure Your masculine voice dwells in my mind The feelings that I have for you is a treasure You are a rare creature, you're one of a kind At night when I dream, you're the star I long to be secure in your warm embrace I feel your touch, when you're near or far My love for you transcends time and space You caused love to bloom in my heart Before I met you, I had given up on love Who knew that we would have to part Your affections were gentle as a dove It's mind boggling how you got my lame jokes I can honestly say you are my best friend Every time I'm near you, my heart spoke My love for you will always be, it will never end Today as I sit and I'm filled with desire and hope That you'll say bye to your obligations to the war If for some reason you don't return, I couldn't cope I have to believe that you'll walk through the door

Wow Alexis, this is such a well written poem, the rhymes are pot on and the flow perfect. This love that you feel and how you describe it allows the reader to know your heart. You mention "best friend" every love relationship in my opinion begins with friendship and if you do happened to fall in love with your best friend, there is nothing better. There is a sadness at the tend of this that is also felt, so I am with you, I hope he walks through that door very soon. Beautifully done my friend.
