Poetry
Only You
By Amber Powell
In every breath that touches my lips,
I think of only you.
Your face imprinted in my head,
In everything I do.
Every time I fall asleep
You’re always on my mind,
I love you so much I can’t believe
We’ve been apart all this time.
Ever since the day we met
I knew we were meant to be,
In school when I think of you
Forever is what I see.
I know I’ve told you many times,
Exactly how I feel,
But I don’t think you understand
My love for you is real.
Now as I sit here thinking of you
I hope and pray you know,
That thru it all, throuout my life,
My love is unconditional.
Crazy About You!
by Michelle
Running in circles,
Waisting my time,
Looking for people
I can't even find.
Chattering lightly,
Floating on air,
Seeing things that
are'nt even there.
Hearing the patter,
not seeing the rain
Crying to myself
not feeling the pain.
My only excuse
for the things that I do,
Is simply because
I'm crazy about you!
Heaven
by Justin Rosado
When I look into your eyes
I see Heaven.
When I kiss your pouting lips
I taste Heaven.
When I hold your hand
I feel Heaven.
When I'm in your arms
I'm in Heaven.
To One in Paradise
by Edgar Allen Poe
Thou wast that all to me, love,
For which my soul did pine--
A green isle in the sea, love,
A fountain and a shrine,
All wreathed with fairy fruits and flowers
And all the flowers were mine.
Ah, dream too bright to last!
Ah, starry Hope! that didst arise
But to be overcast!
A voice from out the Future cries,
On! on!-- but o'er the Past
(Dim gulf!) my spirit hovering lies
Mute, motionless, aghast!
For, alas! alas! with me
The light of Life is o'er!
'No more-- no more-- no more--'
(Such language holds the solemn sea
To the sands upon the shore)
Shall bloom the thunder-blasted tree
Or the stricken eagle soar!
And all my days are trances
And all my nightly dreams
Are where thy dark eye glances
And where thy footstep gleams--
In what ethereal dances,
By what eternal streams.
She Walks In Beauty
by George Gordon, Lord Byron
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 mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd 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!
Beautiful Dreamer
Stephen Foster
Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
Lull'd by the moonlight have all pass'd away!
Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
List while I woo thee with soft melody;
Gone are the cares of life's busy throng.
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea,
Mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelie;
Over the streamlet vapors are borne,
Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn.
Beautiful dreamer, beam on my heart,
E'en as the morn on the streamlet and sea;
Then will all clouds of sorrow depart,
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
First Love
John Clare
I ne'er was struck before that hour
With love so sudden and so sweet.
Her face it bloomed like a sweet flower
And stole my heart away complete.
My face turned pale, a deadly pale.
My legs refused to walk away,
And when she looked what could I ail
My life and all seemed turned to clay.
And then my blood rushed to my face
And took my eyesight quite away.
The trees and bushes round the place
Seemed midnight at noonday.
I could not see a single thing,
Words from my eyes did start.
They spoke as chords do from the string,
And blood burnt round my heart.
Are flowers the winter's choice
Is love's bed always snow
She seemed to hear my silent voice
Not love appeals to know.
I never saw so sweet a face
As that I stood before.
My heart has left its dwelling place
And can return no more.
The Definition of Love
Andrew Marvell
My love is of a birth as rare
As 'tis for object strange and high;
It was begotten by Despair
Upon Impossibility.
Magnanimous Despair alone
Could show me so divine a thing
Where feeble Hope could ne'er have flown,
But vainly flapp'd its tinsel wing.
And yet I quickly might arrive
Where my extended soul is fixt,
But Fate does iron wedges drive,
And always crowds itself betwixt.
For Fate with jealous eye does see
Two perfect loves, nor lets them close;
Their union would her ruin be,
And her tyrannic pow'r depose.
And therefore her decrees of steel
Us as the distant poles have plac'd,
(Though love's whole world on us doth wheel)
Not by themselves to be embrac'd;
Unless the giddy heaven fall,
And earth some new convulsion tear;
And, us to join, the world should all
Be cramp'd into a planisphere.
As lines, so loves oblique may well
Themselves in every angle greet;
But ours so truly parallel,
Though infinite, can never meet.
Therefore the love which us doth bind,
But Fate so enviously debars,
Is the conjunction of the mind,
And opposition of the stars.
Wondrous Moment
Alexander Pushkin
The wondrous moment of our meeting . . .
I well remember you appear
Before me like a vision fleeting,
A beauty's angel pure and clear.
In hopeless ennui surrounding
The worldly bustle, to my ear
For long your tender voice kept sounding,
For long in dreams came features dear.
Time passed. Unruly storms confounded
Old dreams, and I from year to year
Forgot how tender you had sounded,
Your heavenly features once so dear.
My backwoods days dragged slow and quiet—
Dull fence around, dark vault above—
Devoid of God and uninspired,
Devoid of tears, of fire, of love.
Sleep from my soul began retreating,
And here you once again appear
Before me like a vision fleeting,
A beauty's angel pure and clear.
In ecstasy the heart is beating,
Old joys for it anew revive;
Inspired and God-filled, it is greeting
The fire, and tears, and love alive.
A Promise
by David Munoz
The light in your eyes
As you stare into mine
Just makes me see
God's perfect design
The warmth of your hand
The feel of your skin
Moves something inside me
Something deep within
Your feelings so gentle
Your love so sweet
I feel this passion
Every time we meet
And today I give
A promise to you
That my love will be
Honest, Faithful, and True
"O my Luve's like a red, red rose"
Robert Burns (1759–1796)
The best-known love poem by the famed Scottish poet.
O MY Luve's like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June!
O my Luve's like the melodie
That's sweetly play'd in tune!
As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a' the seas gang dry—
Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi' the sun;
I will luve thee still, my dear,
While the sands o' life shall run.
And fare thee weel, my only Luve!
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho' it were ten thousand mile.
The Little Things
by Nicole Sovis
There were no cards to tell you
What I feel inside-
So I had to write the prose myself
With words Hallmark couldn’t provide.
It’s not the places that we go,
Or the big things we’ve been through-
The little things are the reasons why
I love you like I do.
The little things you do for me,
The little things you say-
Your tender smile, your teasing grin
You bring sunshine to my day.
The thoughtful little gifts you give,
The little things we share-
Your gentle touch, your perfect kiss
Are the things that show you care.
Our road through life is bumpy,
And it isn’t always straight-
But I’m glad it’s you who’s by my side
With each twist and turn of fate.
So remember all these little things,
As we live our day to day-
Forever in my heart, David-
Is forever where you’ll stay.
A BLUE STAR IN YOUR EYES
Author: Jo'Lene Tover
On the wings of an eagle,
My love for you flies.
Soaring higher and higher,
And touching the skies.
I reached up above,
And pulled a star from the sky.
To place it within,
Your precious minds eye.
To dwell there forever,
As my love for you.
On the wings of our love,
Enduring and true.
I honor you my darling,
With all that I am.
Please darling please,
Will you be my man?
There are so many things,
My heart wants to say.
I love you sweetheart,
There is no other way.
ALWAYS AND FOREVER
Author: Freida Martinez
Basking in the warmth of your smile
And the music of your laugh
I feel your tenderness
And your oh so witty style
I don’t know why god blessed me
With such a friend as you
But it makes my pleasure complete
And very happy too
The way you always know me
And exactly what to do
When my loneliness gets me down
And I’m so very blue
The way you see into my soul
And looked behind my eyes
And I don’t have to hide my feelings
And put on a disguise
With you I learned to trust
And as I person I have grown
Who could have possibly told me
How could I have known
That you would come in to my life
And my beauty would start to bloom
And like a pretty butterfly
Come out of my cocoon
To share your tender heart
The warmness of your smile
The courage of your wisdom
For these I’d walk for miles
To be thinking of a time
When you’d no longer be there
For me to gaze upon in delight
And all our feelings share
Is not acceptable to me
Because in my life
Is where I want you to be
Always and forever.
