Best Romancelost Poems
Let me come too close to you now
so close that I can hear every breath
to be lost in the depth of those eyes.
Let me kiss your emerald eyes
that sea in which my boat is lost now,
before sinking,whisper of your breath.
Just for once mingle with my breath,
just for once in your emerald eyes
with its love,this heart wants to sink now.
Now my breath grasping in your blue eyes!
Oh Manila, I lost my heart in thee
On a summer's eve of sunset red
I saw her under the coconut tree
My Violy, and wanted her to wed.
In Manila we stirred the ballroom dust
As we danced the loneliness away
Then gave into our mutual lust
As both of our defenses gave way!
Oh Manila, dire passions burn in thee
Whose women steal men's hearts in bed
I lost my first love to the Lady Violy
When she confessed she was already wed.

"FIRST TIME"
_______________________
Remember the first time
our eyes met
I couldn't help but see
your graceful face,
I wanted to ask
if you were from heaven
But I was squandered
from nine to eleven.
Remember the first time
we held hands
The touch of your palm
was enough to excite me,
Lost and found
the feeling was alive
I bet you witnessed
what I describe.
Remember the first time
I kissed you
Time went flying,
Our lips were sore,
Kiss and tell they say
I was so sure
It was you, yes you
Whom I was searching for
And then.....
It was the first time
we made love,
I caressed your body
your angelic skin,
I held you so gently
your eyes lost in mine,
I held you so closely
our love lost in time.

I was inspired to write this piece from my poem "ANGEL"
Staring out from the darkness
How I long to be with you
But you will never see me
Blind to everything impure
Glaring into the light
How I’d love to steal this from you
This curse of purity
Forgiven of your mortal sin
As I lie awake every day
Drowning in my own
I've lost so much time
It feels like centuries
But time is endless for me
Until your face stopped the moon
I thought I was staring into the sun
I felt my skin warm whilst in your presence
As I linger in these frozen shadows
Then you turned away, disgusted by this horrid shell
Leaving me lost within this eternal prison
This darkness
This silent hell
