My Dear Valentine (double acrostic)

In the depths of the night I swear I saw your halo
Drifting above, when my thoughts were calm
Ornate but simple like the humble daisy
Lovely and stunning from flower to bulb
Oh how I dreamt that you could be mine
Vision of beauty as the belle of the ball
Enchanting the evening as we waltz to and fro
You had my heart and I knew it was luv
O my beloved, my truth, my valentine
Until death do we part, my love to you I bid

a love sonnet

 
 
 
 
 
the sun might refuse to rise tomorrow  
she know she will lose to your shining face  
how it blind me and burns all my sorrow  
the heat melting me flashing through your lace  
 
 
night sky is darker than the yesterday  
young stars weren't allowed to see us tonight
stars were too young to see our adult play  
so the clouds put a screen between their light  
 
 
naughty thoughts are floating around the room  
grab a random one and show it to me  
lets turn this into an erotic bloom  
let me start with a soft kiss on your knee  
 
 
I will hold you in my arms till morning  
to smirk at the sun while you are sleeping

Valentine's Arch & Arrow

Soft tremble lil quake  
central world tilt, pirouette
stage and star collide, heaven
 
(You be the happy subject of my songs, and they will emerge worthy of the object that inspires them~Ovid)  
 
 
Beautiful Yavrig,
           The hand held rose, love twine our fingers pulse.
Thine eyes pool, which I swim invigorated, lost within, without outside influence, there to be found.
 
Wile with me this day, Your day, and I'll profess every hour every niche of my chambers.
Lost therein on each other, enrapt heartbeat.
 
Shall we pause the clock, breathless, enamored and locked?
Or do we sing of gild, a breath as one, cried with life?
Now, forever spring leads imprint, budding tree, honeysuckle thro.
 
* * * * * * * *
 
Eyes lit eternal
sparks flare, reflect by mirror  
my vision so clear

MY STRANGER

i. Hit

I was pleased to be just me
Unaffected, jolly and sometimes, serene
Other times angry, but otherwise happy
Then you came and everything changed

I felt a sudden missing that wasn't there before
I don't want nor need it, but loneliness persisted
In my heart, something constantly grows so painfully
A hallow within, aching to be filled by something

ii. Denial

I looked the other way, walking past by you
Convinced myself that only if I faithfully ignore
Would the malady be gone and I would be cured
Much like a bad wind gushing fleetingly ahead

I am fine, I could take it, if I could just hold it in
I closed my eyes and run blindly away
The further I am, the less affected I'd be
I'll be happy alone, just like before...

iii. Acceptance

Or so I thought, but I was wrong
The more I denied, the more it pains
The more I run away, the more tired I became
I could never be free, distance is just an illusion

What I really needed, is to be with you
No one else would fit this empty hallow
Without you, a half-life is what I would follow
Like a moon without the sun in its horizon

iv. Plead

So wont you, take me with you?
Would you love me as I do?
Forgive my foolishness and embrace me instead
With your eyes in tears and a smile on your face.

Will you accept my heart, broken as it is
Of my own doing and no one else
Please  fill me in and make me whole
Give me air, heal me, make me live a full life!

v. Promise

I swear, never to be afraid anymore
I won't let go, I won't be moved,
I would make us a home, a family...
Together we'd weave the future

Together we will be stronger
Even at times of great struggle
We will survive, you and I
Because we are undivided, as one

vi. Grateful

In the crowded crossroad of life
Chances were given for the both of us
Blessed are we to find each other
Amids the chaos of countless encounters

Thank you for waiting to meet me this lifetime
For just being you, with me, for me... by me
For letting me be the shadow of your light
For making me the glimmer you follow in the dark

vii. Pledge

I loved you from yeterday
Love you still today
And would love you more
Till tomorrow ceased to be
My beloved stranger
Stranger no more

viii. Not the end

Chocolate, wine and roses,
Dark stockings and lingerie
She'll look forward to getting -
If only she were with me.

"the Sin of Saint Valentine"

2:22 a.m. in the cold of night
On the ceiling, the smoke detector is the only source of light
A speck of red to remind me where I am
With just enough glow to show the cold space of alone
Exposing my naked flesh beneath the cover I have blown
That was concealing my heartless fantasies
But the breath on my skin is just an icy breeze
And the cinnamon scent hat fills the stale air
From the mouthwash for someone who is not there
To help me believe in her cinn-full kisses
Granting more than my lonely sinful wishes
Why must I suffer the sins of Valentine?
A life-sentence for acts that were never mine
Until freedom arrives with my final breath
The eleventh hour ticks until my death
As the softness of my youth lies here withered
And the flowers she sent went undelivered

PHOTOGRAPH: Not the only one, just this one

 
(My first Sonnet, about a love separated by distance)          
     
You've gifted me so much as I have you,    
A lover's words fair overwhelm'd am I.  
The thought of being yours is honour due,    
To lay it down my sword for heart to fly.    
   
No longer disbelieve if this be done,  
For in a life there is a path to take.  
Without a touch when one will join the one,    
You dreamed it so, though wary for my sake.
   
No other but yours I'd anticipate,  
Then came today an image sent by thee.  
'Twixt hand & breath my heart did palpitate,    
A talisman hath risen from the sea.  
   
To ask of more too soon might prove too vast,    
To feel those arms that would enfold me fast.

science [not really a poem... more like rendered love gap filler]

love is not an experiment
so why are you testing me

Unordinary Love

It is the love and light that shines
Brightly in her heart. It is the smile
That gets bigger and aligns

Her face beautifully. Every mile
She walks is hers to walk alone.
She spreads goodness all the while

She has always been shown
That there are some people who
Do not care about her. She is prone

To pleasing others, but to you
She is not just any ordinary girl.
She is the one who flew

You somewhere new like the pearl
In the ocean and the sunset in
The sky. She will twirl

Right into your arms to feel your skin
Against hers and to feel at home again.
You are always going to be her big win.
