Best Entwined Poems
The first time, I saw my love it was a moment in time,
It was a spiritual experience and I was swept away;
I abandoned myself to this perfect head-spinning love,
Obsessive musings, like an addict with mood swings.
It was more than his physical attractiveness for me,
I was lost in a dream of a forever, ever beautiful love;
Falling for him was like falling into a crystal clear stream,
I dreamed again and again of our precious moments.
I was an emotional wreck, who could not sleep or even eat,
My heart beat faster when he was even just talking;
When we were apart, I was full of longing and anxiety,
Falling in love is very bizarre, it creeps up magically.
Soon our lifes were entwined and we were deeply bonded,
Coated with desire, respect and a genuine courtship;
I let go of expectations and overlooked all his negative,
He was my lover, my friend and my companion always.
We never crowded each other, we both had an outside life,
With our own interests and friends, our eyes never roamed;
Sadly, we buried a child on our journey and that made us stronger,
He took this weeping girl that was me and I was healed.
Then, the unimaginable happened, my love was taken away,
Another path was written for him and I was left far behind;
I only find my love down a winding path in a place of tears,
His name engraved in cold stone for all of eternity.
But, my love for him endures and will never, ever dissipate,
Our bond is endless, and I know he waits beyond the clouds;
It is a love that even death cannot destroy, and it will go on and on,
And in my dreams, he lives still, quiet, gentle and strong.

Placed 3rd
On another impoverished evening
so strangely bleak, the moon weeps
for more burning her soul must retain,
And she clings like a stem to the tree of life
that frozen eyes grasp coiled branches,
weighing down on howls of raven’s play.
Just now … crisscrossed sky lanterns
fog the walls of a withering foliage,
like hushed matte from dusk’s greenery
Pouring balm on a requiem in need of shade,
while in her veins drip… a constant gush
as meshed twigs still interlace on leafy ribs
Immersed in the ardor of their moments,
one fragrant orchid and musky trunk…inseparable,
bound together by affectionate, yet lost stars.
With slight acceptance this rooted love will always
meld despite tree of life faintly drooping;
...in clinched angle, she lays on his buried grass
until dim twilight shuts off.

Human trees embrace,
Making an erotic breeze:
Tousled by true love.
Moon speaks from her heart:
I watch for you every morning with sad weary eyes
after spending the night suspended in dark velvet skies.
First glimpse of dawn excites me when I see you rise.
We share a wink but I never let you hear my lonely cries.
Wish that you could offer me some kind of a sign
to make my heart gladden so it would no longer pine.
If in the sky together, how brightly we would shine,
but we are Sun and Moon, destined never to entwine.
When I am all alone my silver tears threaten to flow.
I cannot risk them falling even when the tides are low.
The stars whisper, "Oh, poor Moon, she loves him so."
In my grief and sorrow, my moonbeams lose their glow.
Sometimes it seems as if there is something you want to say.
I see it in the glint of your golden eyes when you look my way.
I'd love to hang around with you instead of always fading away,
Would it place the world in danger if I stayed with you one day?
We are two celestial bodies, but lovers we're not meant to be.
Both shine brightly from the heavens for all the world to see.
Couples fall in love when they spend the night looking up at me
but we can't share a loving embrace. It's not part of our destiny.
Sun yearns for the Moon:
Your tender words of devotion give me the courage to bestow
the same sentiments to you, dear Moon. I need to let you know
I would give up my throne in the sky just to be your beau.
Each day I wake and pass you by, my love continues to grow.
I've always wanted to tell you how much I long to be with you.
I never want to leave you lonely. You must know my love is true.
But if we dare to fly away together, the Earth will be left askew.
One night of passionate love with you will have to see us through.
Moon's desire:
To have one moment in your arms is an offer I could never decline.
Stay with me tonight, Sun, and when the stars come out and align,
we will gratefully share our long awaited desire in a love so divine.
You may burn me with your fire, but on this night we will entwine.

I can't promise to understand
the ways of the mind
and the ways we're entwined
with the people we love
There's a vine, so divine
It is there, if we want it~
It extends far beyond what we've known
There are people who claim
they can talk to the dead
Who have climbed through the haze
to find them~
There are people we've loved
who are no longer here
but they still warm our hearts, from above
They carry our burdens, and lighten our loads
They soften our sorrows, and straighten our roads
There are people we've loved
who are no longer here
who will help us see brighter
tomorrows~
Some things are entwined,
but they can't be explained,
yet proven times over, again
We are woven in life
by the strongest of vines
It is made out of love that has grown
It can climb to the stars
where our loved ones have gone~
Not a thing that you say
can deny it away
You may scoff, and not hear what I say
But a vine made of love
from my heart to the stars
is the one that I'll climb…..when I go~

his kiss haunted her, howled at her, it edged through the crowd
just to daunt at her, this was a cold she had never known, blown
winds through creaky shutters, shuttered thoughts of fireside talks
and walks, his lips able to do the impossible, possibly taking from
her the one thing she knew to be pure, her warmth;
she panicked with frenzy, her body now a clock, wound tight, full
of fright, never having felt these waves, slaves to his hands, as they
ran everywhere within her soul, paralyzed with suspense, tense, as
her insatiate desire for velvet touches grew anew, her eyes closed,
as the conquest pursued, locking in her memory, this glory, this
story, as if it were the last one she'd be allowed to have in this life;
her body trembled, desire assembled, as he admired the alluring
contour of her silhouette, sweeping across her skin so soft, with the
lightest touch of persuasion, perfection soon, a union of bodies
abound, found within this moment of two into one, she needed to
find him, a whim of mercy, free from inhibition, falling deeper and
deeper, into every heartbeat, he knew he could destroy her with his
touch, touching her with only his trust, he prepared to forgive her
sensations as they demanded more and more of him, here, with her;
then they climbed to the canopy to see the sun together, their hands
locked, the rush of rays exploded their worlds, weeping willows of
emotion covered the bridge formed between their eyes, glued to one
another, gazes gazing, lofty and full of love, an expression of silence,
forever etched, echoes in space, jumping stars, eternal and free,
dreaming;
finally, falling blindly from the deepest canyons in the winter sky,
tears of joy, jumping off the cliffs into pools of warm water, tranquil,
splashing passion onto walls, painted brushstrokes of temptation,
wondering how could they duplicate this moment again, he whispered
into her ear the sweetest words she loved to hear, then he kissed her,
again, and again it began, their worlds bound to the everlasting end;

Something dreadful is reflected in this scene
Could be she's seen death in a horrid dream, or
perhaps a relapse of an affliction or addiction
has left her crestfallen, in an insentient state
with the blood of her sin dripping from her eyes.
In vines, she's entangled for having sat so long
Grieving for whatever tragedy has gone wrong.
Entwined in living vines of a scarlet rose
more alive than she appears to be.
Is it a dark disgrace she bears in this pose?
One Poe would have drawn to illustrate a poem
telling a dark tale as black ravens preen.
With iridescent wings fluttering, they hover near
plucking at an ornament worn round her neck
Cawing attention to her pox in squawking voices,
making her circumspect for being called a sinner.
Has she committed some dark dastardly deed
that's left her sitting on that garden bench
as if in widow's threads, dreading her crime
and praying Mea Culpas for forgiveness?
Forlorn she sits, weary from existence,
oblivious to the avian souls. Do they guard her
or are they being persistent in cawing her shame?
Has she been the victim of some abysmal crime?
What horror must be kept secreted in her mind
and what keeps her kohled eyes closed as if blind?
Don't ask the black bird for he has sworn allegiance
Nevermore would he tell the tale of it all as she falls
ever deeper into the madness that has left her cold.
Aa alabaster statue on a garden bench.
Is she missing her beloved when he was claimed by death
or a wench who in an act of jealousy killed her lover?
The sin committed in passion is a mortal blunder and more...
A flaw in the heart of one Poe would never call Lenore.
In the realm of love, where hearts reside,
Freedom dances with passionate stride.
Unbound, the souls embrace the wild air,
Their love, a melody beyond compare.
Like birds in flight, their spirits soar,
Through boundless skies, they forever explore.
No chains can hold their fiery desire,
Their love, a flame that will never tire.
Freedom's touch ignites their tender hearts,
Unveiling love's depth, its hidden arts.
In whispered sighs, their dreams take flight,
Two souls entwined, embracing the night.
They chase the sunset's golden trail,
With love as their compass, they never fail.
Through valleys deep and mountains grand,
Hand in hand, they conquer life's demanding land.
Their love blooms like wildflowers in spring,
Unfolding secrets only true hearts can bring.
A symphony of passion, free and untamed,
Their souls ablaze, their spirits unclaimed.
In freedom's realm, their love takes flight,
Guided by starlight, burning bright.
Boundaries shattered, walls torn down,
Their love, a masterpiece of a sovereign crown.
Like waves that crash upon the shore,
Their love surges, forevermore.
Unfettered hearts, unbridled and free,
Two souls entwined, for eternity.
In love's embrace, they find their release,
Their hearts entangled, seeking inner peace.
With every touch, they're set aglow,
Their love, a river that will always flow.
Through storms they weather, hand in hand,
Their love, a sanctuary on shifting sand.
They dance on winds of freedom's gale,
Their love's anthem, a triumph unveiled.
In this world of constraints, they break the mold,
Their love, a story that will be told.
Bound by no borders, they conquer the sky,
A love so free, it will never die.
In freedom's realm, their hearts have found,
A love unbounded, forever profound.
Two souls entwined, their spirits set free,
A love that thrives in sweet liberty.

if your heartbeat could ponder to fathom mine what a miracle it would be
if your hand could reach out to encircle mine what a miracle it would be
if your sweet lips could sing like honeydew for my soul what a miracle it would be
if an audition could be won for a vacation cruise with you what a miracle it would be
baby, you got the goods and baby you got the looks, style, and five star plus quality!
we'd boogie on the dance floo, find our love power to score for the disco dance of our
hearts
excited hearts bounce as one night time ecstatic movements light up the disco ball up high
cause we're meant to be the miracle come true
rave reviews for us as a couple of the night on the dance floor
baby, what a miracle you and me would be entwined!

Two trees have grown together by the sea,
and danced by wind, forever they're entwined.
Meant to be, they cling unwaveringly;
two trees have grown together by the sea.
Leaves sway and flutter in a rhapsody
to ocean's roar; come to the shore and find
two trees have grown together by the sea,
and danced by wind, forever they're entwined.

Parents locked in a loving embrace
Mum was wearing pink satin and lace
Making love on the floor
Their kids burst through the door
Just imagine the looks on their face!
Quickly covering bodies and tushes
They bribed the kids to spare their own blushes
Dad put some locks on the door
Just to be doubly sure -
So when entwined they enjoy their crushes

Intense desires imbue my somber mind.
Your breathy whispers thrilling in my ear.
Lush images that capture souls entwined.
Those gentle words of love I longed to hear.
Ascending high on passion's fervent peak.
Your breathy whispers thrilling in my ear.
Emotions felt within I dared not speak.
In you, I felt I'd found my destined fate.
Ascending high on passion's fervent peak.
Fierce yearning in my heart will not abate.
A vicious hurt remains from your farewell.
In you, I felt I'd found my destined fate.
What once I thought was heaven turned to hell.
Despair compels my fragile heart to break.
A vicious hurt remains from your farewell.
Distracted by my thoughts, I lie awake.
Despair compels my fragile heart to break.
Intense desires imbue my somber mind.
Lush images that capture souls entwined.
