While your name is being traced beside mine, as I speak,

your words seem to take shape and then rearrange my breathing.

The second I am lost in the maze that is you, eagerly searching,

the wind finds your whisper of, “I Need You” … and I become weak.

Weak

your words seem to take shape and then rearrange my breathing.

It is amazing how the right words from the right person can instantly drop our defences. Words have power. This poem illustrates that with such beauty, Brandy ;))

You're exactly right, Sam. As the heart holds many emotions within, the thought of being needed seems to be linger after being loved. I appreciate you and your kind words. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

"The second I am lost in the maze that is you, eagerly searching" Though this is full of powerfully romantic vibes that is by far my favorite! The conclusion was absolutely amazing and left me weak. My favorite poem so far and that says something because I adore your mind. You see my work, I am obsessed with sexual undertones and romance! Much love Asavvy1

There is power and depth in this statement. Searching your maze, being lost to the point that you become weak. Romance is always in style and I enjoy writing about that emotion. I'm blushing with you saying you adore my mind. Thank you, Jared. Your thoughts leave me in awe. Yes, I've noticed the sensual tone to your poetry. You are an artist with your words. My best to you. :) Brandy

i love romance, i am an intellectual monster refugee and the delight in this is the last line that draws it all in....remember, 9/11 all the phone calls from those planes, none were hate, revenge, or some poet's line....all were simply about Love...looking forward to more

'I need you' these words r very strong to make weak not only in opposite genders but also in every relationship between human. Impressive well done

Yes, those three words can certainly make you feel "weak." To be needed is a wonderful feeling indeed. Thank you, Arjun. Your kind words are appreciated. :) Brandy

Brandy, I have read this over and over and marvel at how you are able to get to the heart of the matter and expose so many emotions: longing, joy, peace, uncertainty, vulnerability, security. I guess there's a reason they call it "falling" in love, we give up some of our control of the situation in order to entrust ourselves to another. I just love the line 'your words seem to take shape and then rearrange my breathing' as well as the bold text of 'I Need You'. Truly written from the heart. I celebrate your POTW and your well-honed style that is lovely, sensuous, and with universal appeal. Hugs ~ John
Nicole Avatar

John, I am breathless with your thoughts. You humble me, saying that I am able to express each and every emotion through my words. Yes, when you fall in love, your heart has wings and you place your trust in that person fully. Smile. I like that line too. Breathing usually is rearranged, when you're in love. (Breathing patterns change). Placing the words "I Need You" in bold certainly holds the mood on the poem. Thank you my sweet friend, for your kind words and congratulations. :) Hugs, Brandy

Congratulatios Brandy, on your POTW honor. "Weak" was a lovely presentation through your gift of poetry. One we preceive as strong, showing their vunerbility, enduces our surrender to love. Beautiful is the melding of two into one. Need met with a feeling of need and love met with love, two becoming one in that Love. Your poetry is inspiring, Brandy. Thank you for sharing from within. Your friend, Bill
Nicole Avatar

Dear Bill, your congratulations and compliments caress softly around my heart. Love is a beautiful emotion, and when that sweet ache lingers, there is a strong pull to be close. It's more than a want, it's a need. I appreciate you and your lovely comment. Your sweet words. Many wonderful blessings to you. :) Hugs, Brandy
