Poem: Silhouettes in the Night

We stand side by side
Silhouettes in the night
In the distance we see
Our shadows roam free

Destination unknown
Our love fully grown
As we soar through the night
Our dreams take their flight

Through each journey we take
Our love keeps us safe
And erases the fears
That surround us in spheres

And the stories we write
With our love burning bright
Will forever take flight
Silhouettes in the night

Poem: Love Is Priceless

You can’t put a price on love
Nor can you buy it
So don’t let anyone
Shower you with material things
To get you to love them
Especially if they are the kind of people
That don’t deserve your love

Poem: Timeless Love

She stands there searching for something new
Inside his blue eyes like lovers do
Lost days forgotten, new ones ahead
For her no longer is true love dead
She’s found her soul mate, her best friend
She’ll be his partner until the end

No matter what she won’t let him fall
Won’t put him down, make him feel small
She’ll be his anchor, she’ll be his rock
She’ll be his vessel, she’ll be his dock
Supporting him through all ups and downs
And never letting her loved one drown

She hopes that he’ll do just the same
Be there for her through every game
That’s thrown her way by life unknown
Saving her from being overthrown
By her emotions and her fears
That hold her back and bring the tears

A bond like theirs can’t be broken
A timeless love now has awoken
It’s meant to be, it’s meant to flame
It’s meant to grow and have no shame
Forever written in the stars above
She’s always dreamed of this kind of love

Poem: A Heart of Stone

Afraid the past will come to haunt her
And resurface once more
Full of love filled with

False promises
Lies and betrayals
Shattered hopes and dreams
She has no desire to let love in
For another broken heart
Is something she can no longer bear
So she spends each day in isolation
Left alone with a heart of stone

Poem: Two Lovers

Under the night of a million stars

Beneath the silver moon

That casts its shadow on the water

Our lips melt into each other

The sweetest of kisses never-ending

Our bodies swaying to the rhythm of the waves

As the breeze tickles us with its caress

Our leisurely stroll along the boardwalk

Is now a cherished moment in time

As we become two lovers

United by a soulful passion

Yearning for release

Poem: Heartbeat

Heart beats fast
Like a drum
As thoughts of you
Peek in my mind

My heart dances
My heart sings
My heart flutters
Like the wind

My heart soars
My heart explodes
My heart melts
And turns to gold

My heart beats
For you so true
My heart's always
Linked to you

Forever and always
My heartbeat will race
Whenever I picture
Your mysterious face

And whenever I'll swim
In your words so heartfelt
I will drown in bliss
And my heart's gonna melt

And the smile on my face
Will no longer be fake
For the joy that you bring
Makes all grief fade away

Poem: Passionate Words

Your passionate words imprint on my heart
And touch me so deeply right from the start
They sprinkle their magic while melting my soul
With romance and love that forever does grow
They quicken my heartbeat and I drown in bliss
I feel like a princess swept away by her prince
So thanks for the honor of being your muse
Now I feel extra special that me you did choose
We'll forever be linked by sweet words of your art
Written there in the stars in my dreams in my heart
