Love Poems - Gentle Heart

Dear heart you are my comfort
In you alone I share
A little joy and happiness
In moments of despair

Your soft and gentle nature
In me often stirs
Moments of reproach
Or sweet kisses for your face

In others I have seen
The mirror held up to me
They share my many flaws
That oft we end in claws

But you alone I wonder
How one comes to be
Like a child in this world
I find it hard to believe

Frustration that you do not see
Or feel the flaws
In me
And often I am left to wonder
What us two can be

Do you deserve a simple soul
No torment underneath
Who can share in all your joys
And drink to health and happiness?

Naïve at times you be
I doubt you think I am all
I only offer something that
You have not felt before

But we spend a time in passing
Warm our souls in winters midst
And passionate fire shall not consume
Us while we rest

I’ll show you the way I lost
I will not charge you any cost
But you choose to pay my fee
I wonder are you buying me
Or selling into slavery?

I hope I keep you safe
Safe from misery
But only time will tell
And I fear the cost
Will always be with me.

Love Poems - Old Shirt

This tattered warn out relic
A faded copy of the new
Used to be the memory
Of you
In absence
Or for comfort
It was a part of you

Tactile, emotions offered
In touch, and smell
Sweet dreams
I often had
The product of this offering
Though twas requested
I’ll indulge fantasy and love

Smell
The oft forgotten sense
Til we are disgusted
Serves for babies and mothers
A scent of love and trust

I’ll endeavour to remember
To use this gift
And smell shall serve to offer me
You, yes you

And memories shall come flooding
Of sweet embraces numbered
Because this sense
In isolation will not serve
But is in tune with heart and mind

Though, this remanent grew ill favour
Of that there is a little doubt
Was discarded by the wayside
With pictures,
Was thrown out

In hopes the mind and heart
Would follow suit
And stop
Those memories from
Reforming
And cease this torture evermore.

Love Poems - Time and Space

My love
I used to hear your voice
Loving, sensual, stern
Indignant
Flowing waves
Fluctuate
Shiver, vibrate
From lips
To delicate ears

But sound
Can only travel so far
Only masters
A little space
When words are spoken
Like those we shared
The space between us

Alas time
Time separates
Places insurmountable
Distance
Between us

But what time,
What space thus
Separates, divides
Two lovers
Who once held so close
Each heart
That time and space
Did divide and separate
For them?

But this lover
Won't be divided
Except by love
When he fails to
Ease her heart
Or make her soul complete

The voice
Was found
Captured
Imprisoned in time
A small capsule
Tamed to perform
This disembodied voice
May serve only to remind
Of all that was left behind
What was once melodic tones
Is now naught
But static and discord

And for you
A white box
Captured fleeting words
On a dark night
When bodies lay close
And stomachs, hearts
Had not gone hungry
But indulged
Sinned and repent

Both
Voice and heart
Thought time and space
Could be decieved
Would suffer defeat
Alas
A voice of love
Now disembodied
Dis-attached
Devoid of emotion
For one that listens
Serves only to hurt
Wrench from the heart
Memories of time and space
And the fact that two
Once one
Are torn apart.
