Sands

Sands Alone in the sands that lie beneath my feet between the unknown and far from the seas Desolate situations can only bring me to believe to the peace I’m in feeling so free A star in the sky so far away can drift to me closer If I stare in a certain way Through all the clouds over stormy nights passionate kisses longing for one more night just to be alone with you Can you feel me as I write?

"between the unknown" and "through all the clouds" I can feel your words of love. This is beautiful, romantic and tender. Holding a deep longing within. I'm in complete awe. ~ Brandy

You really cover the depth and breadth of romance and the romantic, Matt. Lovely images and I love your last line. You have strong verbs and really capture the sensation of separation "so far way." It is truly a lovely poem of longing.

I’m really happy you enjoyed it. I try to allow readers to hopefully FEEL THE PASSION of the words of my work. This is my soul being poured into my words. Maybe someday I can get paid for it. Lol thanks again

Well hello there you! I’m trying to honestly have my work by anyway possible enlighten somebody’s day! If I can do that I’ve accomplished something that can maybe make someone’s day better.
