Poetry Contest

It is really difficult to write a good love poem.  So many people attempt to write them they become cheesy and repetitive.
So here is the challenge, write an original creative love poem, try to make it clear and concise.  It can be about loving somebody in a romantic fashion, or the love of a child, I don’t care if it is a love with a dark twist or just sweet adoration.  Just give it a whirl.

A light kiss on the forehead,a soft whisper in your ear
The comfort of mans touch,for this moment,you'l have not any fear.

You awake with a smile,you'l lay down with a happy heart
To my eye's you're a chime,and nothing will set us apart.

My Angel

Here we are, together at last, hand in hand
As we walk along the beach, in the waves, in the white sand.
Here we stroll through the park, side by side
As we talk and laugh together, waiting for the next ride.
It doesn't really matter what we do
the only thing that truly matters is that I get to be with you.
It doesn't matter where we go
As long as we're together we'll have fun, that much I know.
Cause my sorrow and loneliness is a thing in the past
I now experience a happiness that will always last.
Even though sometimes our days can go kinda bad
Even though our distance can cause us to feel a little sad.
We don't have to worry about being alone anymore, not now, not ever
Because you and I will always be together, for now and for forever.
Renee, my beautiful angel, I love you more than I could ever say
My adoration and love for you grows more and more each and every day.
Ever since we met you've had a special hold on me
The first night we talked I knew we were meant to be.
You had me hooked honey, I never had a chance
It's like I'm under your spell, almost stuck in a trance.
I am yours, my love, for as long as I shall live
There's nothing I wouldn't do, nothing I wouldn't give.
For the chance to see you, kiss you once more
You affect me so much, down to my heart's very core.
I cannot live without you, my sweet angel of light
I would do anything to protect you, even suffer Death's bite.
All I can do now is kiss you hard and hold you tight
Cause there's nothing I can say, nothing I can write.
That could possible explain my emotions, or my feelings
Damn baby, every time I think of you, you send my mind reeling.
This poem I write for you, Renee, since I play no instrument and cannot sing
And one day I'll truly show my love by slipping on your finger a wedding ring.
But for now we must wait and bide our time which is fine
Just know that one day I'll be yours and you'll be mine.

A Sky In Each Eye  


Am I real
can you deal
with all the layers
that you feel
the thoughts
as I kneel
on the floor  
yes I'm real
my mind
is not blind
and nor
did I steal
the contents inside
they are mine
the real deal .
If you think
for a minute
in synch
yes I'm with it
the light
you will find
is the chink
I am in it .
Just trying to find
the blink  
that hides
I know these times
but you got to stick with it .
You have to believe
not all do deceive
we are fresh
we so mesh
it's so stupid to leave .
So how do I proove
that you I won't use
each other we peruse
there's only me
in my shoes
and yes I know
that you're you
I love
I conclude
there's a sky in each eye
and each one is for you
all I ask is believe
in the task
you can't see
my mind without eyes
is not blind
it still see's ..
What more can I do
I don't want war
not with you
you're my wife
let's not fight
can we join
the happy crew .

This Deaf Dancer        

Where do I go from here
how do I rid your fear
I answer
but nothing's clear
this deaf dancer
through the floor
can hear .

I feel every minute
all the seconds
that tick in it
just remember
I'm real
and from no one I steal
if it rolls I'm the wheel
and if nobody get's it
well I do
your magnetic
telecanetic
delectably , hectic
a comprehendable , sceptic
understandable , unhandable
loving , apathetic

I drive myself mad here
going round
mental hemispheres
I know I'm not perfect
kind of glass or a perspex
breakable , flexible
clarity you just can't see
together we are sailing free
untethered , jocularity
heavy feathers are not
you and me
simply because
they just can't be
we endeavour in hilarity .

I pedalled a wipe out
in the street
a dogfight , invite  
dinner nightmare
I wore white
the wrong thing to wear
what a night to frighten
the unscared
Horsefly bites
and wine we did share
outdoor delights
of drunken impaired
driving on the right
and you cut my hair
so I thought if I might
recall times
that we shared .

So in all the long
don't get me wrong
I hold your flame and I sing your song
as I sit here
you've nothing at all to fear
don't ever
not remember
this deaf dancer  
through the floor
can hear .

I love you

My love
If I could pick flowers
Off the rainbows
I would do that for you

My love
If I could turn the stars
Into twinkling diamonds
I would do it in a moment

My love
If I could breathe
You wafts of Eden’s perfume
I would stand and exhale for you

My love
If I could live
And die and live again
I would like to live it with you

My love
All those I cannot do
But I swear to do one thing
I will always love and honour you

I love you,
Let's fuck.

Fuck that word. "Love."
I could say that to my next door neighbor
or some raunch wanderer.
Eternity, forever and always
Well no my Dear,
I'm afraid not.
But right now, in this moment, as I scribble; I feel.
Isn't that what this is about?

So let's ...get this over with.

I could throw up chocolate doves,
roses and midsummer sandy beaches.
For what? You can't just define love
I can't. There's no word or
Phrase or hallmark greeting card.
There's nothing.

So let's fuck.

Written some time ago:


On A Photograph Of A Girl I'll Never Know

Shaken, I steel myself,
to look once more
upon your porcelain face.

How curious it is
that I assign a texture
to your photograph;
a picture of you -
someone I'll never know.

(I am suddenly gripped
by my own creeping age,
and for a moment I look away,
sickened by it all.)

But again I turn to behold
your eggshell cheeks and painted lips,
and look at your bones that remind me
of an ancient Grecian bowl.

How nauseously sublime it would be
to hold my trembling hands against your white cheeks
and to bring your ruby lips to my own,
to kiss,
and to taint your crisp china-face,
now mottled with my tears.

In that photograph,
your virgin, creaseless neck
is a path for my eyes,
pulling me further into you,
down towards your body,
which I imagine
is a meadow, a mountain, an ocean,
or a cathedral of ecstasy.

I am almost thankful
that I will never stare into those eyes
the size of suns, as dark as winter orchards.

Unsuspected

Skin's awakening,
sheer beauty
of mine eyes,
heart's inferno
and only enemy.

Thus I find
in your sight.

[b]An immortal love [/b]
Hiding within the feathers of an angels wing
My love waits, shy to the world
Content to fly, never wanting to stay
Until I met you

I have traded immortality for your kiss
A mortal kiss soft, moist, like the birth of a rainbow,
Leaving me with no fear
My sacrifice to love,

But love is a feast
And illusions dance in its shadow
And temptation has a price
For my angel danced with destiny
Now I stand on the precipice alone
An outcast from heaven
With broken wings that can fly no more

my dreams lay in the salt
Of a billion tears
This burden is mine to carry
To slow my walk through The Valley of death

For love is my cross
But it is a thing of beauty to show God
And perhaps within my suffering
He will understand
That love and loss is the price
We angels pay for
Living a mortal life.

There was a fight again
You yelled
I yelled
You cursed
I cried
Now we fall asleep
Back to back
The distance our words created
Lying between us
But when I wake
I'm in your arms
And no more words are needed
