The One That Lit the Candle of Eternal Happiness

Midnight whispers from the willow,
   Lonely teardrops upon my pillow.
A lingering smell of pure pleasure,
   Clinging to a nightless treasure.

Bound beneath my skin by frigid chains,
   Tingling vibrations running through my veins.
A gust of freshness, through my lungs,
   Completeness that cant be expressed by ones tongue.

A smile that brings eternal laughter,
   And joyful tears that stream there after.
Imagine a love you just can't live without,
   And I knew this in my heart, without a doubt.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
