Laura Leiser Poet Quatern

If I Could See Your Face

If I could see your face once more
look in those eyes that I adore
my heart would melt with love inside
I'd never leave you til I died.

For when we kissed, my heart would soar
if I could see your face once more
and then we'd run beside the sea
down moonlit paths, just you and me.

In merry mirth we'd laugh and sing
two lovebirds, what a wondrous thing
if I could see your face once more
I'd hold you close beside the shore.

For in my dreams I've heard you say
that you would never go away
now you are gone, my heart implores
If I could see your face once more.

Andrea Dietrich February 6, 2016 at 7:08 PM this one was lovely, Laura. A small suggestion. You are using conditional voice in most of the poem, so verse two needed to use kissed and would for your verbs. I think the poem would be quite improved if you made that change! Congrats on my winners' list. Laura Leiser February 6, 2016 at 10:06 PM Thank you, Andrea! You're right, of course!. I'll change the tense as soon as I am able. Thanks for placing me in your contest :)
