Of She I Speak

If a story feeds your mind, then a poem is food for the soul. One poem can tell someone you love your feelings in just a few simple lines. It allows your heart to express itself in a way nothing else can. I have one here with more to come. The true inspiration for this poem is someone who is the most wonderful woman ever. OF SHE I SPEAK Of she I speak Oh, her so fair, She of golden silken hair Of eyes of blue So clear and bright Heart of only purest light Skin of ivory Teeth of pearl One very special lovely girl. It happened on one special night, Into my life she brought the light. With every word she uttered sweet Every sound did Heaven meet, A wondrous tone I hadn’t known. A smile that did love abound, She caused my heart at once to furl; This very special lovely girl. With each passing moonlit night She came to me on message site. For she you see was far away It mattered not my heart did stray Forbidden love alas I knew Caution to the wind I threw. My heart it had begun to birle; She was a very special girl. Together we in forbidden time, A growing secret love sublime. With each stolen second we, Allowed our tortured hearts to plea, To verbally entwine once more Allow our hurting souls to soar, But as we sank into love’s abyss; Without so much as just one kiss. We knew our love must end with this And end this tragic lovers tryst. With tearful goodbye upon my lips Into that night away she slipped. From my eyes the tears do fall. My heart still awaits her call Knowing that it will not ring Causes yet just one more sting, It is a very lonely world. I’ll always love my special girl.
