To Heal Him
With closed eyes,
His voice casts an enchantment,
Which envelops me.
His music is so soft,
Wispy and sweet.
His words speak of
unrequited love,
A sadness that reaches out.
His fragile, melancholy spirit
Makes my body ache
To heal him,
To be the shore
His ocean finds.
The song finishes
Ending the spell,
Breaking us back in two.
His voice casts an enchantment,
Which envelops me.
His music is so soft,
Wispy and sweet.
His words speak of
unrequited love,
A sadness that reaches out.
His fragile, melancholy spirit
Makes my body ache
To heal him,
To be the shore
His ocean finds.
The song finishes
Ending the spell,
Breaking us back in two.

I love that album and song. I actually first named this poem Pink Moon but decided to change it.

Echo AEMelia. Favourite lines (have romantic, even erotic, tinge, could be thinking of someone you want to be embraced by):
The gentleness
Of his voice
Makes my body ache
For his words.
The gentleness
Of his voice
Makes my body ache
For his words.

From your Poems to replies I find myself in a sort of light space not my typical seriousness somberness. I was allowed two things in my childhood books by the gallons and music. Music makes me feel things that I seem to be unable feel otherwise. My 2 Favs...P.O.D*youth of a nation and PINK* beam me up... You have provoked deep thoughts Miss Mae along with a bit of laughter. You have yourself a beautiful day, Much Love,

Hi Charlotte Mae. A good poem with fine sentiments Music and poetry are siblings from the same source. When I listen to music I think of poetry. When I write and read poetry I hear music. Writing poetry is not easy;however the reading is more difficult something not often appreciated. a poem is a skeleton to which the reader adds flesh.The poet must appreciate this.The poetry is open to criticism as an art form ;however the subject matter and opinions within the poem are the province of the writer while at the same time poetry and subject need to be related. I am a singer. Kexby
CharlotteMae: I like your introspective side, used in self-poems . Makes me feel that you know yourself in a way that is conveyable to a wide spectrum of readers...(while others write in clots of pretension and don't let us know or feel at all). Your instinct seems to be to encourage us to read the next piece and the one after that! Thanks!
