Inking Invisible Letters

beneath the veils
of darkened nights
i write to you
in invisible ink
love letters
from my heart

concealed thoughts
trace every edge 
of your existence

i arch my letters
like the curves
of backs
in shadows
on the wall

erasing 
the distance
between us
by connecting
the stars

we shine
in the brilliance
of the moon

become
the whispers
carried
in the wind

the breathless sighs
before the hush
of dreams

by morning's rise
we fade out
with the letters
of my heart

unseen

Silent desires flow within this invisible ink your beautiful poem so wonderfully expresses. Many thoughts are kept inside, dreams, longings that only we know. A soft, sensual and passionate poem my friend.

Brilliant thoughts of love. Blinking my eyes; tears to rain piercing my heart again and again. Hopes though dim my soul yearns to love floating on fairy fins. Getting awake after acute ached core of liking are flying Wearing a robe irk and igniting fantasy to win. Wishing you all the best. with regards. sk.

Romantic and mysterious, I love the invisible ink idea. It says so much that can't be seen.
