Touch - Sharon's Acrostic Contest

Touch me with your heart's chiaroscuro! Oxygen shall travel elsewhere; this is our waltz. Understand that it's okay to trip; I don't need to be impressed. Celebrate with me tonight as we rejoice in each other's lovely imperfections! Honey, even if we fall, we'll stand through all odds together. (Written on June 27th, 2017)

Thanks, Alexis! I'm proud of it because it was the first poem I posted on this website and first contest I've ever entered into on PoetrySoup. I've written love poems in the past that I haven't shared here, but I'm confident in this one. Also, I read your contest submission and I absolutely adored it! Good luck, my friend! :)

Thanks for telling me to remove my name, I didn't realize that! It's my first poem on PoetrySoup, I'm still trying to get used to the website. Thank you for your sweet comment, Daniel! :)

"Chiaroscuro" a new word for me. I would remove your name from the poem though, we are not supposed to put our names on the poems when entering contests. Also, welcome to PS and good luck in your first contest.

Okay, thanks for the advice; I removed my name from this. I'm still trying to get used to how this website works. Thanks for the reply! :)
