Notes About The Poem

Pathway To Love

As I sit watching fusions of saffron and scarlet hues elegantly charm the horizons. Silently, fluffy lush clouds float by like a magnetic field drawing me closer, in hope they may lead me to you. So I ponder maybe love is like the sunrise so many see it - yet so few feel it. Just the thought of my beloved, leads to these poetic fingers bleeding. As they drown in an abundance of words, that can only be soothed by her luscious lips. For these sentimental eyes yearn to caress her tender skin. So, I set upon the path to discover, if it shall lead to the realms of my lover. A path that I have once trodden upon before, but the soul demands to travel upon it once more. After all I'm only human, the love she planted in my heart still remains and how can I love another, when the heart refuses to give permission. Time has kept us apart. I float to her like a butterfly, and shall float until I reach her province. For this not just an infatuated sensation, you may hear in a fairy tale or sung in a lullaby. Her love is the only sensation of infatuation, as she holds the formula to my alchemist heart. I know I can't simply take her heart, it can only be given to one. But without her the world is cold, and I live for the day she will wrap me up inside her heart and never let me leave. For the love she gave, is still the only one I crave. I long to walk together amongst bluebells and ambrosial roses, roaming through an oasis of enchanted blossoms. Her arms will become my sanctuary. To create a masterpiece of serenity, to achieve an eternal state of tranquillity. I hope before first site of twilight, her perfect vision brings justice to this write. In a world full of expectations, I may lose the passion to exist. Just one beautiful gesture, will help me to remember how to smile. For, I know her radiant eyes will provide clarity, the warmth of her kiss will be my remedy. The Silent One 8 November 2017 Simple Musings.

I am glad I read this poem tonight while listening to a soft melody. The music and your soothing words melt to create a symphony for me. A healing effect on loop as I read them over again and absorb them slowly. Glad to read this one from you :)

Silent One, the loving impassioned plea of a passionate poet... beautifully written sentiments of deep love and longing; 'Just one beautiful gesture, will help me to remember how to smile' - a palpable sense of yearning poignancy is conveyed with your skilled and talented pen that feels soulful and true. Excellent and enjoyed so much!

Such an escape when reading your poems. This one is very deeply written towards a love once lost to transform anew it sounds like. I am just interpreting my point of view at this time of soul seeking. Loved this one because I lost myself in the want to be within the poetic love story.

This is a very beautiful write, so full of the emotion of LOVE, and the feel of it surpasses any simple gestures of love, into the grandness of the desire for the perfect heart to bring you peace and joy through the only part in the world...her love! "For the love she gave, is the only one I crave/.../roaming through an oasis of enchanted blossoms," those lines are so awesome! The internal rhyme of the first line there is done masterfully, and the allusion of the second line is exceptional! GW!!
