Sitting at the river
toes splashing greedily
taking the late afternoon sun
and absorbing it into my skin
my color like bronzed caramel
my sun-streaked hair
flowing freely down my back
a warm breeze brings the smell
of vanilla and jasmine
the scent is sweet and inviting
tiny fish darting in and out
of the shallow depths
a calm and peaceful place
as the sun heads
to other side of the world
I wouldn't trade this place
for all the gold in the world
I could search the entire earth
from north to south
and east to west

I could walk every desert
climb every mountain
and swim every ocean

But no matter
where ever I were to roam
I could never find a truer love
than the one I have with you

You are the light to my dark
You are the calm before the storm
You are the reason I breathe

I would give all the stars
in the blessed heavens
just to taste your lips
for all eternity


We wrote poems together
a poetic team
Phrases of feelings
and pieces of dreams

Kite strings, umbrellas,
and blue summer skies
Wishes and kisses,
desire filled sighs

Gazing at moonlight
and coffee at dawn
So much affection
and then you were gone

Then came the clouds
with a chill in the air
Words disappeared
with the poems we shared

Now I'm alone
only darkness remains
Stanzas are empty,
the lines filled with pain

The love that we penned
something I did adore
We wrote poems together
but not anymore
You're a sheet of white paper
So light,polite,soft and humble
And I'm a fountain pen
I slit my blood ink arm vein
With a sharp knife
And colours your life
And writes my love story
In your life's paper sheet
I love you so much
I promise,never you cheat
And My name's title
On your white skin
Reading your eyes
They tell me secrets
My nib always kisses you
& writes a note on your lips
You're my notebook
With pretty look
My red ink flows
make your face skin glow
I save you,not as locked
Coz you're in my heart's pocket
