How Do I Love Thee? (Sonnet 43)

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
~ Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Blooms of Monet

Flowers bloom, colors emerge, petals unfurl
Breeze sways, soft touch, sunlight dapples
Fragrant air, nature’s tapestry, bees hum
Butterflies flutter, dewdrops kiss
Golden rays weave, flowers sway.

Love blooms, grows, and embraces
Promises unspoken, pure and true
Eternal devotion, love withstands
Our love flourishes, unity’s testament.

Solace in blooms, affection’s caress
Love withstands time, forever blooming
Love blossoms, whispers of affection
Hearts dance, tender embrace.

You bring joy, soft touch, warm love
My bloom, entwined hearts
Love grows, unfolds, spring’s sway
Souls sing, intertwined, love’s rebirth.
~ Dev Sommerville

When You Are Old

When you are old and gray and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
~ William Butler Yeats

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? (Sonnet 18)

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow’st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
~ William Shakespeare

And We Float

Floating lovers dance in dreamlike celebration,
As cosmic romance weaves its enchanting spell.
Whimsical flights of passion fill the air,
vibrant colors reveal the depth of our affection.
A poetic fantasy unfolds before our eyes,
Our magical embrace with timeless devotion.
This moment becomes a portal to love,
We float and transcend earthly boundaries.
Our love defies gravity and logic.
Amidst the celestial backdrop, we find solace.
Embracing in a realm of infinite possibility,
Stunning hues mirror the intensity of our hearts.
As we float, forevermore,
On the sweetest rising tide of us.
~ Harrison Beslow

Music, When Soft Voices Die

Music, when soft voices die,
Vibrates in the memory —
Odors, when sweet violets sicken,
Live within the sense they quicken.

Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
Are heap’d for the beloved’s bed;
And so thy thoughts when thou are gone,
Love itself shall slumber on.
~ Percy Bysshe Shelley

Destiny’s Tapestry

You were made for me, I was made for you,
Our souls entwined, a love destined to ensue.
In the cosmic design, our paths aligned,
Together we stand, a bond divine.

In the tapestry of fate, our threads are woven,
A love so profound, forever unbroken.
Through trials and triumphs, we find our way,
Destiny’s stars, dancing in love’s grand ballet.

For in the depths of time, it was foreseen,
Our hearts entangled, forever serene.
You were made for me, I was made for you,
A love story written, destined to be true.
~ Gregory Astara

The Kiss That Ignites

Passion ignites within their sculpted bodies,
Entwined souls merge in a tender caress.
Timeless ardor emanates from their embrace,
Exquisite intimacy shared, their hearts entwined.
Marble’s warmth resonates through their connection,
An eternal bond formed with immortal devotion.
Each touch reveals the depths of their love,
The sculptor captures their passionate union.
This moment in time immortalizes their everlasting embrace.
In this masterpiece, love is forever frozen,
Their souls entangled, a testament to passion.
Through art, their love transcends time.

Lost in Time
Lost in the sands of time, our love remains,
A bittersweet memory that forever sustains.
Through the ages, our souls still yearn,
For a love that fate will never return.
In the depths of history, our love transcends,
A timeless connection that never bends.
Though time may pass, our hearts still entwine,
Lost in a love that defies the confines.
In the annals of eternity, our love will reside,
A flame that continues to burn deep inside.
Lost in time, yet forever intertwined,
Our love’s legacy, destined to bind.
As the world changes, and eras dissolve,
Our love’s essence remains, forever resolved.
Lost in time, yet eternally true,
Our love, a testament to me and you.
~ Ellise Imbriglio

Lost Love’s Lament

In the depths of my soul, a sorrow cries,
Lost love’s bitter taste, the tears it implies.
Chance slipped away, missed moments, lost time,
A heartache deepened, a love’s mournful chime.
Regrets cascade like a waterfall’s descent,
Echoing the ache of love’s sweet torment.
Oh, what if I had seized the fleeting chance,
To embrace your love, to partake in romance?

But alas, the fates conspired to intervene,
And our paths diverged, leaving love unseen.
Unrequited longing haunts my restless nights,
A silent ache that burns, refusing respite.
Yet, in the depths of my heart’s lament,
I cherish the memories, a love once spent.
Though you may be lost, forever out of reach,
Your presence echoes still, in whispers each.
And so, I mourn the love that could have been,
Aching for what was lost, a bittersweet sin.
~ Jessie Wainleigh

Whispers of Winter’s Embrace

Snowflakes dance, like whispers in the cold,
Winter’s embrace, a tale yet untold.
Silent footsteps on the pristine white,
Nature’s blanket, a canvas of pure delight.
~ Heath Quintieri

Night Thoughts

Stars, you are unfortunate, I pity you,
Beautiful as you are, shining in your glory,
Who guide seafaring men through stress and peril
And have no recompense from gods or mortals,
Love you do not, nor do you know what love is.
Hours that are aeons urgently conducting
Your figures in a dance through the vast heaven,
What journey have you ended in this moment,
Since lingering in the arms of my beloved
I lost all memory of you and midnight.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Love’s Philosophy

The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of heaven mix forever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
In one spirit meet and mingle.
Why not I with thine?-

See the mountains kiss high heaven
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth
And the moonbeams kiss the sea:
What is all this sweet work worth
If thou kiss not me?
~ Percy Bysshe Shelley

The Dancing Light that Surrounds

Tranquil pond glistens with ethereal colors,
Vibrant reflections dance upon its serene surface.
Blooming serenity emanates from delicate swirls,
Nature’s embrace captivates with peaceful allure.
Your touch immerses me in meditative beauty,
Subtle hues evoke floating dreams and serenity.
Poetic stillness envelops the tranquil scene,
I hear your voice as it whispers tranquility to my soul.
Each word overflowing with your serene essence.
You enchant me, a visual symphony,
Sweet beauty emanates from every corner.
In your eyes, serenity finds expression,
The magic of your being prevails.
~ Jordyn Sandleford

Bright Star

Bright star, would I were stedfast as thou art-
Not in lone splendor hung aloft the night
And watching, with eternal lids apart,
Like nature’s patient, sleepless Eremite,
The moving waters at their priestlike task
Of pure ablution round earth’s human shores,
Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors-
No-yet still stedfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow’d upon my fair love’s ripening breast,
To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,
Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,
Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath,
And so live ever-or else swoon to death.
~ John Keats

Goddess Unveiled

The misty dawn unveils the goddess emerging,
From sea foam, she rises with grace.
A celestial birth, bathed in soft hues,
Her curves, like gentle waves, mesmerize.
Timeless allure radiates from her presence,
Mythological enchantment envelops every stroke.
The canvas glows with divine radiance,
An artistic masterpiece, capturing eternal beauty.
The birth of Venus, a vision realized,
Her ethereal form evokes awe and wonder.
Mesmerized by her allure, I stand captivated.
A symbol of love and feminine grace.
The artist’s brush immortalizes her essence,
And the world embraces her with reverence and awe.
The ethereal beauty of my forever love.
~ Reese Carlington

She Walks in Beauty

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o’er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express,
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!
~ Lord Byron

The Happiest Night of My Life

Carefree joy permeates the night and
Swirling laughter echoes through the room.
Your passion unfolds with contagious energy,
And your voice captures the essence of ecstasy.
Vibrant colors dance with twirling hearts,
Summer’s warmth infuses the lively atmosphere.
Fleeting connections forged in a moment’s embrace,
The artistry of the moment immortalizes our bliss.
The dance floor becomes a whirlwind of sparks,
As we twirl and sway with carefree abandon.
Champagne flows as laughter fills the air.
Your smiles radiate, capturing the essence of happiness.
You breathe life itself, at its richest.
I revel in the fleeting beauty of this moment.
~ Nikolas Sheekey

I Love You

I love your lips when they’re wet with wine
And red with a wild desire;
I love your eyes when the lovelight lies
Lit with a passionate fire.
I love your arms when the warm white flesh
Touches mine in a fond embrace;
I love your hair when the strands enmesh
Your kisses against my face.

Not for me the cold, calm kiss
Of a virgin’s bloodless love;
Not for me the saint’s white bliss,
Nor the heart of a spotless dove.
But give me the love that so freely gives
And laughs at the whole world’s blame,
With your body so young and warm in my arms,
It sets my poor heart aflame.

So kiss me sweet with your warm wet mouth,
Still fragrant with ruby wine,
And say with a fervor born of the South
That your body and soul are mine.
Clasp me close in your warm young arms,
While the pale stars shine above,
And we’ll live our whole young lives away
In the joys of a living love.
~ Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Under the Starry Sky

In the inky darkness, the starry sky breathes,
Bursting with hues, like Van Gogh’s canvas.
Your heart beats as we stand,
Gazing upward, immersed in its cosmic embrace.
I hold you close, our souls entwined in the celestial tapestry,
Each star whispers tales of love, written across the heavens.
We are but fleeting figures beneath their eternal glow.
In this moment, time dissipates, and the world melts away.
Love burns, like a comet’s trail, with a passion untamed.
Our connection transcends earthly boundaries,
Anchored in the ethereal beauty above.
Together, we find solace and passion,
Under the starry night, forever intertwined.
~ Toby Stefanak

The Thorns That Entwine

Dual existence unfolds in your mind’s eye.
Heart’s mirror reflects intertwined selves with grace,
With inner turmoil painted upon your face.
The duality of love and loneliness portrayed in vivid hues,
Your stitched identity weaves tales of emotion beyond measure.
Our thorny embrace, our shared pain,
As one soul gazes upon the other.
Our conversation between two selves,
We explore our most secret struggles – laid bare.
Baring my heart, I feel raw but seen.
In you I feel solace and strength.
That we are still standing is a testament to our pain and triumph.
Together we can withstand the storm.
~ Sebastian Oetjens

Symphony of Raindrops

Raindrops fall, a symphony of grace,
Tapping melodies on windows’ embrace.
Nature’s percussion, a rhythm divine,
As the heavens weep, a melody intertwines.
~ Sorsha Arquette

A Warm Summer Night

Riverside rendezvous brims with joyful bliss,
And our sun-kissed laughter echoes through the air.
This vibrant companionship between you and me,
Sparkling conversations flow like the river’s current.
Our leisurely flirtations mingle amidst the painterly air,
Melodic ambiance sets the mood for something more.
Your touch captures the essence of our summer’s embrace,
Each moment embodying the spirit of desire.
The party fades into the background,
As laughter and music merge in harmonious delight.
Our glasses clink, toasts resound, and hearts intertwine.
This night exudes life, passion and beating hearts,
As the enchanted serenade unfolds through the warm night.
~ Winnie Smith-Garland

I Am Not Yours

I am not yours, not lost in you,
Not lost, although I long to be
Lost as a candle lit at noon,
Lost as a snowflake in the sea.

You love me, and I find you still
A spirit beautiful and bright,
Yet I am I, who long to be
Lost as a light is lost in light.

Oh plunge me deep in love – put out
My senses, leave me deaf and blind,
Swept by the tempest of your love,
A taper in a rushing wind.
~ Sara Teasdale

Wrapped in Gold (Melting into Your Kiss)

In a world bathed in the warmest golden patine,
We find ourselves shining.
A masterpiece of love esconces us in its warmth,
As you lean over, time slows to a crawl.
It feels like it took forever to arrive in this moment,
Bursting with color, our lips meet.
The touch of your mouth sends shivers down my spine,
Wrapped in your embrace, I could stay forever.
Our bodies entwined, melting into one another,
The golden kiss leaves me breathless, yearning for more.
In this celestial realm of passion and desire, we become art
The world fades away, leaving only us,
Immortalized in this timeless embrace.
~ Raleigh Windson

Muse of the Moon

Bathed in moonlight’s glow, inspiration awakes,
A muse emerges, as the night sky quakes.
In lunar whispers, creativity takes flight,
Words woven in stardust, painting the night.
~ Olivia Loukides

Invitation To Love

Come when the nights are bright with stars
Or come when the moon is mellow;
Come when the sun his golden bars
Drops on the hay-field yellow.
Come in the twilight soft and gray,
Come in the night or come in the day,
Come, O love, whene’er you may,
And you are welcome, welcome.

You are sweet, O Love, dear Love,
You are soft as the nesting dove.
Come to my heart and bring it to rest
As the bird flies home to its welcome nest.

Come when my heart is full of grief
Or when my heart is merry;
Come with the falling of the leaf
Or with the redd’ning cherry.
Come when the year’s first blossom blows,
Come when the summer gleams and glows,
Come with the winter’s drifting snows,
And you are welcome, welcome.
~ Paul Laurence Dunbar

A Clandestine Desire

Melancholic gaze conceals clandestine desire within, and
Hazy reflections mirror masked emotions of longing.
Flirtatious intrigue lingers in the air,
Our secret desires paint the scene with eager awaiting.
Seductive mysteries intertwine in quiet intimacy,
With wistful connections simmering beneath the surface.

This night captures the poetry of desire,
Each glance hints at untold stories.
In the mirrored world of seduction and yearning,
A waltz of hidden passions takes shape.
You stand before me, poised in enigmatic allure.
As I watch you, immersed in my own deep desire.
Through this gaze, we glimpse the unspoken.
~ Nathaniel Kottmeyer

Thoughts on Marriage

You were born together, and together you shall be forever more.
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your
days.
Yes, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness.
And let the winds of heaven dance between you.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love.
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other’s cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but each one of you be
alone – even as the strings of a lute are alone though the quiver
with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not in each other’s keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the Cyprus grow not in each other’s shadows .
~ Kahlil Gibran

The Unseen Connection

Beneath the surface, an invisible thread,
Binding our souls, where words go unsaid.
In quiet moments, we share a hidden longing,
A connection unspoken, yet endlessly strong.
In the depths of our silence, a language unspoken,
An understanding that cannot be broken.
Though the world may not perceive what we share,
Our hearts resonate in a secret affair.

Through the ebb and flow of life’s grand design,
Our unseen connection weaves a tapestry divine.
In the spaces between words, we find solace,
A connection unspoken, yet filled with grace.
In the symphony of silence, our souls unite,
Embracing the bond that transcends day and night.
Though unseen, our connection we hold dear,
A love that whispers softly, yet crystal clear.
~ Julian Brydie

Echoes of the Sea

Salt-kissed air, waves crashing with might,
Seagulls soar, filling the sky with their flight.
Ocean’s whispers echo secrets profound,
A symphony of waves, where mysteries are found.
~ Josephina Torrington

You Are an Enigma, The Girl with the Pearl Earring

The masterpiece of you unveils a luminous gaze,
mysterious allure emanates from your eyes.

Timeless elegance graces your cryptic smile.
Whispers of secrets dance upon your lips,
The pearl’s lustrous glow enhances your charm.
The artist’s enigma, entwines reality and dream.
With a fleeting glimpse, the world is transfixed.
Curiosity lingers in your beguiling eyes,
A timeless mystery frozen on canvas.
Each stroke unveils a fraction of truth,
The Girl with the Pearl Earring, you are my eternal mystery.

Voyage of Imagination

In the realms of dreams, imagination sails,
Embarking on a journey where fantasy prevails.
Uncharted landscapes, vibrant and wild,
A voyage of wonder, where dreams are beguiled.
~ Lennon Dubecky

I Wish I Could Remember

I wish I could remember that first day,
First hour, first moment of your meeting me,
If bright or dim the season, it might be
Summer or Winter for aught I can say;
So unrecorded did it slip away,
So blind was I to see and to foresee,
So dull to mark the budding of my tree
That would not blossom for many a May.
If only I could recollect it, such
A day of days! I let it come and go
As traceless as a thaw of bygone snow;
It seemed to mean so little, meant so much;
If only now I could recall that touch,
First touch of hand in hand – Did one but know!
~ Christina Rossetti

Shadows of Memories

In the attic of my mind, memories reside,
Shadows of the past, secrets they hide.
Whispers of nostalgia, a bittersweet refrain,
Moments captured in time, forever ingrained.
~ Cleo Angelidis

The Torch of Love Dispels the Gloom

The torch of Love dispels the gloom
Of life, and animates the tomb;
But never let it idly flare
On gazers in the open air,
Nor turn it quite away from one
To whom it serves for moon and sun,
And who alike in night or day
Without it could not find his way.
~ Walter Savage Landor

Two Wanderers

Contemplative solitude envelops your enigmatic figure,
As a majestic vista unfolds, a world in awe.
Ethereal mist shrouds the infinite horizon, and our
Introspective journey ignites silent reverie within.
Two wanderers encircling nature’s glory,
As awe-inspiring beauty captures our souls.

We gaze upon the sea of fog.
Falling into the serenity, lost in thought.
In this distant realm, time stands still.
The vastness of the landscape echoes the heart.
A sweet journey unfolds between us, seeking inner truths.
A tribute to nature’s grandeur and love’s embrace.
~ Kip Alderidge

Whispers in the Dark

Whispers in the dark, secrets untold,
A clandestine affair, a story to unfold.
Under moonlit skies, we meet in hushed embrace,
Lost in a love that time cannot erase.
In the velvety night, where shadows conspire,
We find solace, our souls set afire.
Whispers in the dark carry our desires,
Igniting a passion that never tires.

In the depths of our clandestine affair,
We dance in the moonlight without a care.
Whispers become echoes in the silent night,
Guiding us towards love’s forbidden delight.
As the stars bear witness to our secret liaison,
We surrender to love’s intoxicating persuasion.
Whispers in the dark guide our rendezvous,
Two souls entwined, sharing a love that’s true.
~ Melodia Ortez

Melancholy’s Elegy

In the depths of melancholy, a poignant rhyme,
Words weep on paper, capturing the sublime.
Elegy of emotions, expressed with grace,
In sorrow’s embrace, beauty finds its place.
~ Toby Stefanak

Wild Nights-Wild Nights!

Wild Nights – Wild Nights!
Were I with thee
Wild Nights should be
Our luxury!

Futile – the winds –
To a heart in port –
Done with the compass –
Done with the chart!

Rowing in Eden –
Ah, the sea!
Might I moor – Tonight –
In thee!
~ Emily Dickinson

Jealousy, My Bitter Heart

In the secret recesses of my anguished mind,
There dwells a specter, a venomous kind.
Jealousy, with its vile tendrils, unfurls,
Writhing, entwining, through my thoughts it swirls.
Each stolen glance thou bestoweth on another’s face,
Provokes a tempest within, a wretched embrace.
How couldst thou, with thy captivating mien,
Look elsewhere, while my heart remains unseen?

Oh, the mysteries veiled within thy thoughts,
Like ancient tomes, in hidden depths they’re caught.
Why hast thou favored me, an ordinary soul,
When myriad gems surround thee, taking their toll?
This torment lingers, like a bitter residue,
A constant reminder of my insufficiencies, true.
Why canst thou not release me from this woe,
And grant my weary heart respite, a chance to grow?
~ Julian Brydie

Her Beauty Transfixes

In the ethereal realm of beauty’s embrace,
She radiates a celestial light, in every grace.
Her visage, an exquisite tapestry to behold,
Where youth’s bloom and wisdom intertwine, untold.

Her lips, like rose petals, beguilingly tender,
A symphony of longing, a desire to surrender.
Hands, adorned with softness, a poet’s delight,
Whispering verses, a touch that ignites.

Beneath her garments, a gentle curve’s sway,
A canvas of elegance, unveiled with each display.
Subtle hints, like the moon’s elusive glow,
Stir my soul’s tempest, where passions ebb and flow.

Her beauty, a rhapsody of artistry and grace,
A tapestry of desires, an enchanting chase.
In her allure, I find solace and surrender,
A love that transcends, an eternal splendor.
~ Nathaniel Kottmeyer

Silent Thoughts of You

In a quiet café bathed in nocturnal solitude, I think of you,
An introspective soul lost in my own world.
Muted colors cloak the somber atmosphere and
Melancholic sweetness fills the air with longing.
The urban isolation hangs heavy with whispers of you,
Nostalgic yearning lingers amidst my memories.
We are our own figures in the night, alone and apart,
Each figure wrapped in their own thoughts.
A glimpse into the profound depths of the self.
Silent thoughts of you,
Unfold in the empty hours.
~ Ernesto Sorello

Would you still love me if you knew me?

In shadows’ depths, my fears take flight,
Anxious tremors, hidden from your sight.
For if thine eyes were to truly see,
Would thou still find a place for me?
Imperfections, flaws, and failures, too,
A tapestry of faults, I must admit true.
How couldst thou choose this flawed facade,
A trembling soul, with heart unclad?
I feel a fraud in the light’s harsh gleam,
A shattered vessel, as in a dream.

Yet, thou hast seen beyond the veil,
Embracing me with love that does not fail.
But still, the fear within me lingers,
What if thy vision changes, wanders?
Wouldst thou turn away, reject my truth,
Unmasking the frailties of my youth?
Oh, let me find solace in your embrace,
A sanctuary where love’s doubts erase.
For in your eyes, I find belief anew,
That imperfections, too, hold beauty true.
~ Heath Quintieri

Your Mona Lisa Smile

Your enigmatic smile hints at hidden feelings,
Mysterious gaze, timeless allure, captivating presence.
Serene countenance hides enshrouded secrets within,
Elusive beauty that defies definition and capture.
I feel your longing as it echoes through the ages,
Your gaze draws me into a world unknown.
You are my muse, shrouded in mystery.
Concealed emotions stir in your silent gaze,
A haunting beauty that enchants for eternity.
~ Dev Sommerville

Why Can’t it Be Me?

In the realms of secret longing, I reside,
A silent witness to love’s bitter tide.
For thou art blind, my love, to what’s concealed,
Unaware of the passion I’ve so fervently revealed.

Oh, wretched fate, to stand and watch you kiss,
While my heart bleeds, engulfed in deep abyss.
I yearn to be the one whom you embrace,
To feel your tender touch, your warm embrace.

But alas, thou art bewitched by another’s spell,
Unaware of the love that in my heart does dwell.
I long to shout, to let my truth unfold,
To reveal the depths of love that I withhold.

Yet, I remain in shadows, silent and unseen,
A prisoner of unrequited love, it seems.
For thou art blind, my love, to what is true,
Unaware of the love that only I hold for you.

So, I shall endure in this secret agony,
Knowing that my love for thee shall never flee.
In whispered dreams, I’ll cherish what could be,
But in the depths of longing, I’ll forever be.
~ Reuben Suco

A Tangled Fate

Our lives entwined, a destiny unknown,
Two star-crossed souls, forever prone.
Fate’s twisted game, we both must endure,
Love’s labyrinth, a challenge pure.

Through winding paths, we find our way,
Nurturing love, no matter the dismay.
Hand in hand, we face the trials we meet,
Our souls united, entangled, complete.

In the tapestry of time, our threads intertwine,
Weaving a story that is yours and mine.
With each step forward, we break free,
From the chains of fate, forging our own decree.

In the depths of our hearts, a flame burns bright,
Guiding us through the darkest of night.
Though obstacles arise, we stand strong,
Together, we navigate this journey, however long.
~ Sorsha Arquette

Serenade of Silence

In the hush of night, a serenade unfolds,
Silence weaves melodies, stories untold.
Whispers of solitude, an orchestra in the dark,
Where the absence of sound becomes exquisite art.
~ Paula McGauvran

An African Summer

The warm landscape sets the stage for desire,
Forbidden passions ignite wild adventures of love,
And a fiery attraction fuels our untamed hearts.
Our sweeping romance unfolds amidst nature’s beauty,
Evocative sunsets capturing our emotional intensity.
A profound connection binds our souls together,
And in the vast wilderness, love finds freedom.
Our love story dances across the savannah,
Against all odds, our hearts intertwine.
The vivid backdrop mirrors our untamed desires,
The wild plains echo our yearning souls.
With every frame, our love story unfolds.
Through trials and triumphs, our hearts prevail.
A passionate affair, forever etched in memory.
~ Ronan Fensby

Intoxicated Hearts

Drunk in love’s sweet embrace,
Our hearts entangled in a passionate chase.
With every touch, we drown in desire,
Fueling the flames of a forbidden fire.
Deep in our core, desires awake,
With ignited passion, all barriers break.
Intoxicated hearts dance to love’s sweet rhyme,
Lost in the moment, lost in the sublime.

In the haze of our ecstasy, we’re consumed,
By a love so intense, it cannot be assumed.
Intertwined like vines, we surrender control,
Transfixed by a love that consumes our soul.
As dawn breaks, we awaken from the trance,
But the spell of love continues to enhance.
Forever entwined, our hearts forever free,
In this all-encompassing love, we’ll forever be.
~ Raleigh Windson

Serenade of Silence

In the hush of night, a serenade unfolds,
Silence weaves melodies, stories untold.
Whispers of solitude, an orchestra in the dark,
Where the absence of sound becomes an exquisite art.
~ Lucy Himenes

A Chance Encounter

A chance encounter sparks profound connection’s flame,
Heartfelt conversations reveal hidden depths within.
Fleeting moments crystallize in our memories.
Midnight strolls through ancient streets,
We muse on existential realms.
Intimate discoveries bind our hearts in rapture,
The city’s charm forms a backdrop; our hearts alight.
Transcendent moments linger in the night’s embrace,
And time stands still as we explore life’s mysteries.
A poetic love blooms in our embrace,
Our souls entwined, destined for this encounter.
Through the deepest conversations, we unravel vulnerabilities.
Exploring connection with a fleeting beauty,
Though we may never meet again,
This night will stay etched forever in our souls.
~ Lidija Montgomery

Unfulfilled Dreams

An enchanting gaze reflects my longing,
A woven tapestry weaves your mystical allure.
Poetic solitude envelopes my melancholic heart,
A mirror’s reflection reveals my hidden desires.
This tragic fate binds me to a solitary existence,
Watching your haunting beauty and your graceful form.

Grace adorns your every step,
As you draw me in your ethereal essence.
Your gaze holds secrets of unfulfilled dreams,
Gentle longing lingering in your soft eyes.
Through your eyes, I glimpse your world,
A tragic figure lost in the night of sorrows.
Despite all this your haunting beauty endures,
And evokes a sense of endless wonder.
~ Sebastian Oetjens

Yearning Hearts

Yearning hearts, forever intertwined,
Longing for a love we may never find.
In the depths of our souls, a silent plea,
To find solace in each other’s company.
With every beat, our hearts sing a song,
Yearning for a love that will right the wrongs.
Through the trials and tribulations we face,
Our yearning hearts find solace in grace.
In the vast expanse of love’s infinite reach,
Our yearning hearts find the lessons it can teach.
Through heartbreak and pain, we strive to find,
The love we seek, the one that’s kind.
In the depths of our yearning, we discover,
That love is a journey, like no other.
Though longing persists, hope keeps us strong,
For in the depths of our yearning, love will belong.
~ Reese Carlington

Missing You

In yonder realm, where distance casts its spell,
My heart doth ache, in sorrow’s hollow well.
For thou art distant, love, beyond my reaches,
And like a wounded bird, my spirit beseeches.

Thine absence rends the fabric of my days,
As shadows dance, in melancholic haze.
The air grows heavy, laden with my sighs,
As love’s sweet tendrils seek to touch the skies.

Oh, cruel fate, that keeps us thus apart,
And fills my longing soul with tender smart.
Each passing hour feels like an age’s span,
In this vast world, where thou dost distant stand.

Yet, though our bodies be apart, my dear,
Our souls entwined, forever linked, sincere.
In dreams, I see thy face, so fair and bright,
A beacon in the dark, a guiding light.

So, let the days pass by, with patient grace,
For in my heart, our love finds sacred space.
Though oceans separate, and mountains rise,
Our love transcends, as boundless as the skies.
~ Ellise Imbriglio

Whispers of Autumn

Leaves dance in the wind’s tender caress,
Autumn whispers its vibrant finesse.
Nature’s brush paints the world in gold,
A tapestry of hues, a story yet untold.
~ Josephina Torrington

You And Me Against The World

Spirited exchanges reveal your hidden depths,
As our forbidden attraction defies society’s watchful eyes.
Sweeping landscapes mirror our tumultuous hearts,
And heartfelt confessions pave our path to understanding.
Our enduring devotion weathers life’s trials,
And a sweet elegance envelops our most tender moments.

These trials and journeys shape our love,
While unspoken affection lingers between stolen glances.
You unravel my heart,
Through wit and charm, your story unfolds.
A dance of passion and misunderstandings,
Our love defies expectations, blossoming against all odds.
Even in our harsh world, love conquers pride,
And our timeless love endures.
~ Harrison Beslow

Unspoken Longing

In the silence between words, a hidden desire,
A longing that grows, fueled by the fire.
Unspoken yet deep, it lingers within,
Aching for a love we cannot begin.
In the spaces between our conversations,
Lies a longing that defies explanations.
Though unspoken, it reverberates strong,
A silent yearning that can’t be wrong.

In the depths of our souls, emotions reside,
Unspoken longing, like an ocean’s tide.
With every breath, it consumes our being,
A silent symphony our hearts keep decreeing.
In the tapestry of our unspoken longing,
We find solace, in the silence belonging.
For in the depths of our wordless connection,
Lies a love that defies all comprehension.
~ Zachariah Hollback
