Your name is a golden
shiny bell hung up in my
heart. It tastes sweeter than
apple pie and red hot cinnamon
flavored gum. It warms me more
than the heat that radiates from the
sun. It’s spelled out in four short
letters that sound fun when pronounced.
Its true i'm telling you, your name is a
golden bell hung and tangled between
the ventricles of my heart. It sounds like
secret prayers whispered in the dark.
Your name is slowly taking over my
thoughts

it is a mantra now, reverberating throughout my being
in a place where repetition is sweet fulfillment
and to say it , feel it, taste it on my lips..
To drown in the essence, the flavor...sticky sweet
like hot candy floss on my tongue
like a prayer on my lips
and a song in my heart .....
a prickly, tender stroking of every pore in my flesh
your sweetness becomes my depth and in that...
I am whole, satiated and warm with glowing rapture
I awake each hour to the hunger
and the more I indulge the more it becomes a thirst
and yours is the only nectar to quench this perpetual desire
thirst, hunger, desire, longing ..... You


Your name sweeps my feet
off the ground. It sounds like
secret melodies carried by the
winds and entering my ear. It’s
the only word that I want to hear
throughout this entire year. These
four letters shall forever be carved
on the chambers of my heart. These
four letters are what let me fall in love
from the very start. Inking my skin with
these four letters is all what I really want*

like a tattoo, indelibly inked upon my soul
there is you and your music and the melody
which haunts my dreams and fills my every waking hour
to utter your name is like a prayer
to hear your voice is a symphony of ecstasy
playing upon the strings of my heart
dare I say it out loud
would the entire world fall for you'
as I have done?
I’ll share the joy but never,
even at the cost of my own life,
will I release this feeling from my being
you are the message I have waited
my whole life to hear
sing it to me now, in dulcet tones of passion
create your vision of us in your own fashion
and now I own your name, your song, the dream
but you own me..For I am yours...entirely.
sing ..... And I promise the perfect harmony* ~

I feel a change in the air
Floating my way
Can't wait untill it's here
I must say

There's no longer a chill
In my bones
No more feeling ill
A new array of tones

My soul is soaring
Above the clouds
My heart is beating
Out aloud

No expression can express
My current emotion
For I'm dressed to impress
With my doors wide open
Looking to the future :D feeling determined and ecstatic for a new era

I miss the ink flowing
Freely from my pores
The harmonies which bellow
Transcending chords

I miss the meadows
Of pure emotions
The calling of my name
Over vibrant oceans

I miss the galleries
Of crystal reflections
The soul piercing
Tides of torn inception
I miss being able to enter worlds and write. Im so lost at the moment without them

I float
On the winds
Of time

Waiting
On a purpose
For me
To find
Feeling pretty melancholy about life. Dunno what to think or even write at this moment.
Hi all! I wish to challenge all of you fine poets to create a poem that offers encouragement to all, because everyone needs to be lifted from below the clouds, so they may see the light that this world has to offer. SO how this challenge works is you must choose a topic around the lines of substance abuse, suicide, addictions, breakups, domestic violence and write a poem of how they need to know that their troubles will soon end and they will be at peace once they push past their problems. I too, will write my own. To show that you have participated, tag this poem with #BeTrueChallenge I hope to see participation! ^w^ Have a wonderful day all of you.

Don't we all want
to be held
while we cry?
I'm alone.
