Mated

If only It were easy for me to part from thee

to go back to a time afore I knew you

ere your beauty and your love were forever in my heart branded

times together in my mind forever treasured, the beauty of you in my soul forever mated


Leaving nothing of all your immediate reminders.

A caress of flames to engulf me

And warm my cold loneliness,

A moment of bliss to bid me farewell

Without ire or regret


Though I cannot claim from thee my heart anymore than I can claim the moon from the skies for your love.


The heart wants what it wants and I cannot even begin to grasp the reasons neither can I fathom the depths of these alien feelings,

Only that should I lose you after I've just found you, I ....cannot imagine going on.

Brilliantly penned my dear friend. I guess we've all been struck by the cupid's arrow. We've all searched for the caress and embrace of unconditional love. It all seems strangely over-rated to me. Love is the oracle of lies if you ask me. Nicely done. I'm glad I read your poem. I'll make it a point to subscribe to your poems. Taha
