You are browsing the archives of romance.

Your alluring aura,
Acquires the attention of angels.
Your tempting tones,
Trigger the tremors of time.
Your sweet scent,
Stimulates the source of simplicity.
Your luscious lips,
Link latent longings.
Your engaging eyes,
Energize the evolution of our efforts.
And, your sensitive inner self,
Soothes the center of my soul.

I await…
I await the purest of inspirations,
The mirror of my soul,
My soulmate.
Have I seen her beauty?
I know not.
But, I have envisioned how her eyes sparkle
With a youthful exuberance and incomparable brilliance.
Have I heard her voice?
I know not.
But, the sweet melodies she sings,
Chimes in time with my delicate heart strings.
Have I savored her lips?
I know not.

Experiencing living from the inside out
May leave one in constant doubt,
Of life and what it may bring.
But, if we continue to question
The gifts we are given,
We are left with nothing on which to cling.
We may never be alone together,

Closing
If it is not love you are in,
Please do not tarnish your soul with the sin

Awaiting the quenching quietude
Only you bare.
Begin blending
With the intense beats
And bring about
The bounties of my soul.

Move in closer, don’t shy away,
For there is so much more we should say.
I shout your name into the stillness of night,

Time moves faster
As the day draws nearer
And, we are carried along
Bouncing rapidly
To these days of brevity.
Wrinkles are drawn
In the appropriate corners
Which bring us closer

Links are enforced
Through our entire being
That allow us to grow
Blossoming similarly
Well beyond the day we marry.
