Truest words never spoken but known
If I could open a book with you cover to cover
Then I would never need any other reading material ever
Plains of the grass swaying like the hair of my love
Her scent, her voice perfect as soft as a dove
Two roses intertwined with one thorn and one heart
Red as blood that flows for you
I would choose you over the heavens of life
I already have the heavens of life with you
A consistent fire through the night sky, she is my star
As sure as the river flows so does my love
I rise with the sun, you rise with the moon
We rest our hands upon the dead
And forget any foolish words said
My whole existence yearns for just a second of your prescence
Valence is overwhelming for you
How do you explain to your heart that your mind is a picture of us?
If I could sleep for eternity and never see you
I would be the saddest man at peace
The least of my worries is this
Promise me you love me
I promise you, I love you
Then I would never need any other reading material ever
Plains of the grass swaying like the hair of my love
Her scent, her voice perfect as soft as a dove
Two roses intertwined with one thorn and one heart
Red as blood that flows for you
I would choose you over the heavens of life
I already have the heavens of life with you
A consistent fire through the night sky, she is my star
As sure as the river flows so does my love
I rise with the sun, you rise with the moon
We rest our hands upon the dead
And forget any foolish words said
My whole existence yearns for just a second of your prescence
Valence is overwhelming for you
How do you explain to your heart that your mind is a picture of us?
If I could sleep for eternity and never see you
I would be the saddest man at peace
The least of my worries is this
Promise me you love me
I promise you, I love you

love poem, redolent of rich, poetic feeling. The romance hear fairly stings with it's dark, insightful observations of the need for togetherness which the narrator feels towards his beloved. Very very good. I especially enjoyed the first two lines, as they contain possibly the poem's most creative metaphor.

the line "I would be the saddest man at peace" - for me it captures the entire poem precisely and beautifully.

masterpeace the words flow like liquid silver as you express and define your love of the the woman that lives for the moon it says a lot when you wrote, "I rise with the sun, you rise with the moon" it says how different yet same you two are.
