Possession

my dearest my nearest
my desire seen the clearest
my love my heart
my dream forever sought
my hope my wish
my picture of bliss
my aim my goal
my love so many times told
my precious my child
mine for a little while
my best my blessed
my truest tenderness
my kiss my carress
my world nothing less
my loss my gain
my wisdom born in pain
my turn my chance
my desprite try at romance
my screams my tears
the death that i most feared
my coveted my adorned
my possession forlorned
mine for a little while
oh how i miss your smile

Congrats on your poem being featured. I really enjoyed this poem because it has the two things that resonate with me: rhyme and rhythm. this poem is very musical and you've given your rhymes some powerful meaning.

i dreampt of April this morning. i noticed her hair was golden. and it was braided in a way i never seen on earth. i think it was Gods way of letting me know that it was real.
