A few poems.

[Zephreck]

Some poems I have written for a lady I loved very much. We are no longer together. But I figured I could share them. I don't post alot so apologize if this is wrong place or inappropriate to post them here.

The Effects of Your Voice

In the depth of sleep I dream,
Pictures, symbols, what do they mean?
My body warm when air to my ears brings,
the sound of a telephone that rings.

Upwards my consciousness soars,
Hoping it is the one I adore.
The room is black and I reach out blind,
The ringing telephone I seek to find.

Grasping, searching, at last I succeed,
And withdraw the phone to answer its plea.
Breath held tight, I quickly pray,
That it is my love that calls this day.

My tongue thick I try to speak
Hello? I say phone held to cheek.
For a space my heart beats fast,
Until the voice I hear at last.

Soft and sweet it fills my ear,
The sound of one I find so dear.
Her voice instantly makes me calm,
To my heart it is the ultimate balm.

Her words to me proves her care,
And I long to smell her fragrant hair.
Her soft voice fills the air,
And removes from me all despair.

As we talk time matters not,
Too precious to ever be bought.
My world stands still and seems to cease,
As with her words my soul finds peace.

No not yet! Please no! Please don't go!
But time for man will never slow.
Our time is up and so she goes,
Pouring into my heart sadness flows.

Life is too harsh it is not fair,
For I am here and she it there!
Joy and sadness mix within
As I long for her yet again.

Silent I lay staring up at space,
Sighing with remembrance of her face.
I resign to sleep and dream of when,
The time we share will never end.

Another...

Another poem I wrote in gratitude for a Lady I use to have in my life.

Thank You

For each of your hundred smiles.
The beauty of each to me beguiles.

For the way you say my name.
No one else can ever say it the same.

For letting me run my fingers through your hair.
The wondrous scent of it hanging in the air.

For the way your lips kissed mine.
I remember each kiss, every single time.

For enfolding me in your arms as we lay side by side.
As you lay in my arms, from all fears and pains I hide.

For each phone call you gave, you desire to talk to me.
Each spoken word full of love, I could always plainly see.

For letting me drive you around, our hands entwined.
Just being beside you was a joy I never expected to find.

For all the gifts you bought for me and ever gave.
Nothing in the world for them I’d ever care to trade.

For the robe you wore for me, you covered in deepest green.
Each curve of your body… perfect, the best I’ve ever seen.

For the way you made love to me giving me your soul.
It is only in your arms that I have ever truly felt whole.

I’ve searched my life for a treasure such as you to find.
Who would love me as I am…. Body, Soul, and Mind.

For all these things you have given to me I reflect upon today.
But it is when you say “I love you” that you steal my breath away.

I have not much to give to you for all these things, nothing to pay.
So my heart and soul I give instead and promise to love you every day.

No matter where you are, what you do, what you say.
My love will always be yours , It is the least I can repay.

Last one.

And last one. Not sure why I am posting these. Part of it was due to talking to a friend who suggested I should. Part of it is I guess letting others read about some of my thoughts and emotions.

Memories of Dawn

Was your name as beautiful before I met you?
How often have I heard it? A thousand? A few?
My mind races to remember but alas will not.
Surely I once knew. How is it I forgot?

And what of your scent that drives me insane?
That lingering scent that on my pillow remains.
Had I smelled it before, before it was you?
On somebody else, or is it just new?

Would it still stir within me longing and desire?
If never I had met you to ingite the fire?
Why is it your scent, my love, my dear,
Is causing me right now to weep wet tears?

Lying here right now, I hold myself tight.
Now in darkness, memories of you in the light.
The sheets cold beside me, empty… not right.
And I dream of a time when we shared the night.

The small of your back fit so well with mine.
I still recall every curve, every soft line.
The sounds of our hearts as they kept the same time,
And the feel of your hand as with mine was entwined.

Your hands in my hair and neck they caressed,
And the way your fingers quickly undressed.
But when you lay your head on my chest,
Is truly my dear what I loved best.

The feel of your hair as my fingers ran through,
What makes it so soft I have not a clue.
Your neck is satin as my lips caress its side,
My fingers busy along your back they glide.

The heat of your lips cause me to shiver,
Descending on me now I start to quiver.
Our fingers entwine then race off again.
Hoping their discoveries will never end.

Your lips on mine, passion ignites.
Our bodies melt they put up no fight.
Merging together once two now one,
Close together a cocoon is spun.

Slowly we dance, our bodies entwined.
You press yourself down and our bodies bind.
There is no difference between us two,
As you surround me, and I melt in you.

I look in your eyes, no struggles, no fears.
Only a yielding that is obvious and clear.
Our love for each other we no longer hide.
Once buried within has now burst outside.

The heat of our bodies builds ,hearbeats race,
Your bodies response makes me quicken the pace.
Faster and faster our bodies in time,
When one of us moves, the other one mimes.

My passion on fire, surely I will burst,
A pleasure is found which both of us thirst.
You shout with release as I hold you tight,
And ride wave after wave of pure delight.

Our bodies stiffen, and then melt together,
My body feel light, light as a feather.
I hold you to me and look in your eyes,
The love I see there almost makes me cry.

My slow soft fingers continue to caress.
As our hearts slow and get much needed rest.
Your lips seeks mine and our kiss is deep,
I am not quite ready to let you sleep.

Again and again we dance the night through,
Until the grass outside is covered in dew.
I melt in you , and you melt on me.
A part of me always you will now be.


For you my dear who I dream of tonight. It is you I long for to be beside me. You my heart aches for. You whose touch I think could heal any pain. You whose memories cause me to not sleep. You whose smile lights up my life. And you who I long to have lying upon my chest right now.

Know that you are missed.
Each day, each hour, each minute that goes by.
I pray for the day we can be together.

All sorts of possibilities arise when you realise that the end lines of your poems don't have to rhyme. The trouble with rhyming everything means words get shoved in just to make that rhyme and it's not the way you would express those words in a normal conversation. Of course there are form poems that rhyme, and you only have to take a glance at the Survivor Challenge that is ongoing now to see examples of this, but you may also note they even these forms have very rigid rules as to where the rhymes go and the length of lines, syllables etc. Everyone has their own style but it's just as much fun to stretch and try something new and wave goodbye to all those tedious rhymes that have to keep fitting just so.
