Against a hazy backdrop, they kissed until they couldn’t breathe. He knew she had to go, but he wouldn’t let her leave. Under the blossoming cherry tree, he professed his love, hoping, she would not flee. Still she moved away from him, afraid she would stay forever, which was his idea, all along, indeed, it was rather clever.

The sun was setting quietly, behind them, where they stood, not taking any chances, he kissed her, again, and kissed her good. She kissed him back quiet gingerly, then with a passion, sure; staying in his loving arms, was truly his allure.

Guided by light, through the misty night

A ship finds its way, across the ocean

Bobbing in the sea, it remains a mystery

How it was brought here, on waves of motion

Or perhaps it’s the moon, makes sailors swoon

Unaware are they, of her alluring beams

Closer they come, until they are numb

Alas, all is not really what it seems

Still, the ship heads in, from where its been

Sails folded, as she glides toward shore

A crash, tis a sight, though try as they might

They can save themselves, nevermore

Darkness falls across my face
I’m weary from the day
Yet, this is the time that I embrace
Where my mind begins to stray

To fantasies and wonderlands
To visions quite obscure
To a place, my mind expands
With magical allure

Where dreams become realities
Where life’s a nursery rhyme
Where there is no normality
And I can pass the time

Until the light must shine and splay
Become a brand new morn
And I must tuck my dreams away
Until the night, again, is born

She never looked them straight in the eye
Though the men around her would easily sigh

Her breathtaking beauty, soft and demure
An added feature of her exotic allure

Skin, like ivory, though her face was made
There was never a clue, but oh, how she played

Making believe she did not notice, when they
Ogled and leered, in their provocative way

Each of them, dreamily, held her in thought
Never able to take, what they eagerly sought

Draw Me In ~ #poetry #freeverse

I want to draw you

Memorize the contours of your face

Sketch the intricate lines of your eyes

Your nose, your mouth, that jawline

That draws me in, every time I’m near you

I want to erase the worry,

And replace the doubt

With the delicate strokes of my hands
