The Poetry of Love

With thoughts aligned within my mind
the poetry I hoped to find;
and dreams refined, angst left behind
by words forever redefined.

This symmetry was meant to be
please share with me your poetry.

The words within your heart begin
to make my head so softly spin;
with thoughts of sin I start to grin,
as goosebumps form along my skin.

This symmetry was meant to be
please share with me your poetry.

Your beauty beams and fills my dreams,
and takes them gently to extremes;
my mindset steams with wily schemes
as deep within, my passion teems.

This symmetry was meant to be
please share with me your poetry.

With bright array your words display,
and form within a bright bouquet;
these thoughts will stay with me today;
your poetry takes me away.
