Trust in LoveA curious uncertainty
Reveals itself as honesty
And as a song is dressed in rhyme
Some feelings only show with time

We decorate our tears with joy
As bashful girls or stubborn boys
Years will grace our hearts and lives
We'll learn to love and grow to cry

There is no trick or hidden code
A treasure chest of words untold
There is but you, where there is me
We'll choose to wait and stay to see
Love?Why is everyone nowadays so mechanical? After a string of dates and reasonably good conversation, it's a relationship. After some sex and arguments, it's over.

No one is in love anymore. No one can stay up all night thinking of 1,000,000 reasons why they love their partner. Stare at them while they sleep, counting their hairs, their pores scattered all over their skin. Smelling the scent their being exudes. Everyone is cautious, keeping a bit of themselves in a vault for safekeeping. Don't give it all or you'll lose it far too soon, they think.

Truly in love, just the thought can bring you to tears and distort the world around you. Until yo
My Seasonal LoverEach cloud that streaks the pale blue sky
Sends rain that greets awaiting plains
Millions of me fail sans one or two
That may likely land on you

I shine by day to light your paths
Come dark of night the stars assume
My hope that you might one day see
The hidden beauty that is me

Send me flames red as fallen leaves
Awaken me in the bloom of your embrace
Numb my pain like the first fall of snow
Yet leave a trace before you go

Until you return, my seasonal lover.
Perfect Kiss
Seconds fading into glowing embers
Lighting paths to pester sweetly
Forgotten warmth in tepid letters
Unlocking horrors deep within me

Wishes dressed in hastened bliss
Sullen in this plague of doubt
Heart surrenders to this kiss
Eyes ravel in the mottled sound

Will it last until the morrow?
To years that wind into our story
Forbid it be a tale of sorrow
For I will never say I'm sorry

Hush, do not speak of pain
Nor must you turn away
Nil on Earth remains the same
Tears can yearn for later days

Now kiss me.

Angel in the Tapestry

:icontaho:

The silken cloak adorns your face
Though fraying at the seams
Beneath your eyes so boldly traced
A paradox of sullen dreams

In tongues we speak
At day we sleep
The summer night stands still
Your whispered kiss
My wintered soul
Your broken beauty makes me whole

So take my heart to mend your own
Your madness frees my mind
Let me taste your tragedy
The numbers never cease
Shallow passion piercing deep
Your halo, dear, is mine to keep

I like the first and second stanzas very much. You keep just enough rhyme for your expressions to be filled out and not be left lacking.

I'm afraid that I couldn't grasp the meaning of the number's line, but I know you have assigned it meaning. Limited audience isn't a bad thing in a poem, just... something poets can sometimes find unfortunate.

The eleventh line is one of the most brilliant verbal constructions I have ever read . . . and I have been reading poetry for over 33 years.
