Yearnings

As sun sinks low and stars come out, my passion starts to burn; the darkness causes hopes that shout this pining poet’s yearn. I sit and ponder for awhile the dreams I long to find; the thoughts of you and your sweet smile weigh heavy on my mind. The reveries of your sweet love, my passion’s paradigm; as moonbeams flutter from above these moments sealed in time.

The longing is evident within your words, that ache to be close. This is filled with so many emotions my dear friend. Moments touching the heart. So beautiful and tender. ~ Brandy
