Souls Entwined

Intense desires imbue my somber mind.
Your breathy whispers thrilling in my ear.
Lush images that capture souls entwined.

Those gentle words of love I longed to hear.
Ascending high on passion's fervent peak.
Your breathy whispers thrilling in my ear.

Emotions felt within I dared not speak.
In you, I felt I'd found my destined fate.
Ascending high on passion's fervent peak.

Fierce yearning in my heart will not abate.
A vicious hurt remains from your farewell.
In you, I felt I'd found my destined fate.

What once I thought was heaven turned to hell.
Despair compels my fragile heart to break.
A vicious hurt remains from your farewell.

Distracted by my thoughts, I lie awake.
Despair compels my fragile heart to break.
Intense desires imbue my somber mind.
Lush images that capture souls entwined.

Welcome to the Soup... a mix of good and bad. I'm glad I found you through your blog post for my mind has feasted on a gifted writer's poetry. Know that many others enter the member contests and never place... but never give up, ok. One day yours will place and then you'll be thrilled. A lot of talent on the soup.. sometimes I just use the contests for a "muse" and a challenge of self to write when I feel dry. This is another wonderful poem !! I prefer those contests that are judged blind..
