The pale white lines of your arms, my dear
Cause my wand'ring gaze to draw near
For once again, you are alone
Still and silent like a stone
You bring me light with your golden presence
What have I done to deserve this sentence?
For it pains me far more than death
To see you far away from my breath
The clouds, they do get darker
The falling rain is my marker
For love does tend to come for me
As rain does fall, so heavenly
And with the falling rain, I see
Redness on the cheeks of she
Whose presence does consume my soul
Whose hand has become my highest goal
For all the flowers that I could name
Were cast aside and put to shame
When our two paths did come together
And on my heart was placed a tether
For how sad was life before she came
How everything was all the same
So grey and full of loathing
WIthout a thing worth holding
And now I have a thing most precious
So beautiful and mysterious
That does take me by the heart
To this brand new, glorious start.

One of those Poems
I used to think I walked alone
I thought I'd end up like a stone
So cold and frozen without the warmth you bring
With nothing to do but write and sing
I was waiting for your call in my silent shell
And like an angel's, your call fell
I never got to tell you how much I liked you
And how I'd never want us to be through
You still fill my coloured dreams at night
In which for you, I always fight
I really do hope you put into words
The way you feel, like chirps from birds
And with your voice so beautiful,
You'd finally make my empty heart full
When will you look into my eyes
And tell me that you finally realize
That it's you that keeps my heart in motion
And that you've got me stronger than any potion
That whenever I see the first star in the sky,
I wish I'd finally catch your eye
That without you, my shore has no sea
Without you, my dove is not free
Without you, I'm a prisoner in a cage
That you'll be in my heart for all age
That maybe, you feel the same way
Oh, how I wish would come that day
When you would take my hand and say
That with me, you'd forever stay. ♥

Birthday Poem

She's coming...
This poem has a second part, describing my feelings after the event. I shall put that up soon. Enjoy.
What great gifts fate has brought forth
That my luck began to look north
Rain so missed has fallen down
In the girl who wears a gown
I gladly thank the heavens dear
They thought of me and brought me cheer
For what joy it is to bear
That the air you breathe, with me you share
But would you dare to hold my hand?
And take me to that foreign land?
Of things so pretty and majestic
And in your eyes, I'd see that magic
And in your pale, white face, I would find
That yellow sun that brightly shined
But would you let me into your world?
So beautiful with flow'rs unfurled
And so, I ask you , pretty thing
Would you ride so soft upon my wing?
And soar with me into the sky,
And into Love, together fly?

Shoulder
The first of three in my "Poems About a Girl Whose Name Ends With the Letter 'T'" series.
Let me hold your pale white shoulder
So we may keep warm as it grows colder
On it does drape your hair
without a will or wish or care
It is such a pretty thing to look at
For there both angels and demons sat
Whispering words into your ears
Easing you through love and fear
I wish to take their place so dear
And be with you forever near
So sweet as in a dream
Softened by love's warmest stream

If the Pastry were In My Room
I miss her smile at all times
And so I write these endless rhymes
As if calling out for her embrace
And the warm closeness of her face
How I do desire her hand in mine
On my face, her lips would find
The warmth that had for so long
Been hidden in the dark so strong
I'd like to hold her close to me
And see her filled with sincere glee
My hands running across her pale skin
To satisfy her every whim
And she'd bring her face so close to mine
And I'd be trapped in that fragment of time
In bliss forever and forever more
Her kiss is all I'm living for

Fingers Shaking
With trembling heart and hand, I write
Every cell in my exhausted and contrite
My heart does fail me so often now
All I can do is lift a brow
In anguish and toil, I suffer out my days
Waiting for love to come and at me gaze
And save me from the flames of hate
And take me to a more heavenly fate
I fear for all that is to be gained
For my mind is still with confusion stained
I dare not forget to pay the piper
For in his strife he is a viper
I fear to make a single move
As I wish not to scratch a single groove
A balance has been set for now
To make it better, I wonder how
My heart must push my body forth
To act before they close the doors
To defeat all rivals in this quest
And gain her hand with my tongue's jest
Every cell in my exhausted and contrite
My heart does fail me so often now
All I can do is lift a brow
In anguish and toil, I suffer out my days
Waiting for love to come and at me gaze
And save me from the flames of hate
And take me to a more heavenly fate
I fear for all that is to be gained
For my mind is still with confusion stained
I dare not forget to pay the piper
For in his strife he is a viper
I fear to make a single move
As I wish not to scratch a single groove
A balance has been set for now
To make it better, I wonder how
My heart must push my body forth
To act before they close the doors
To defeat all rivals in this quest
And gain her hand with my tongue's jest
