Times Two

Whisper whisper in the night
Hold your lover oh so tight
If in the morn she is gone
Somehow you must carry on

Secrets secrets lovers share
her eyes covered by long hair
Do you know her you think so
Pleasured moments taken slow

Questions questions where did she go
Answers not found you do not know
She disappeared before daylight
Why has your angel taken flight

Sorrow sorrow deep in your soul
Where she once lived there is a hole
You wonder did she ever care
as you sit and mournfully stare

Shouting shouting to the sky
Tears erupting from each eye
How could the heavens be so cruel
Perhaps you're just a lonely fool

Waiting waiting is it true
Will there be a lover new
Can you trust her you hope so
a new person you don't know

Smiling smiling ear to ear
Your soul mate is finally here
Holding her close but not so tight
You have no fear that she'll take flight

Hours hours become years
Happiness grew from your tears
Kisses hugs a love that's true
She's the perfect one for you

Moments moments children two
Parents now but not a clue
Twins a gift for lovers to share
You are such a happy pair

WoW! Such a cool, creative write, Richard. I agree w/Eileen, the opening stanza repetition is ingenious ... it moves this poem like a graceful swan on the pond. Beautiful lost love found story told. Your pen shines as always. Love and peace forever.

All is well that ends well, dear. I found that repetition in the beginning of each line intriguing. It lead well to the finale. Hugs

This is a beautiful write, so full of love and hope for a wonderful life together, forever! You have expressed loss excellently within the first couple of stanzas, but quickly went on to state about the joy of finding your real soul mate...the happiness that ensues from that is immeasurable! I loved the way you wrote this, your first line-word repetition in each stanza is quite effective my friend! I really enjoyed reading this poem so full of the wonders of life! Great Work Rick!!
