Secret Lover

We waltz across the floor
as you hold me close
Your heart beating with mine.
Love lingers in my soul
Long have I adored you
My love for you was never told
Gladly I would disclose my feelings
But I'm afraid to be so bold

My instincts feel so good now
I have to stop and think
Showing you my bashfulness
My face turns salmon pink
Is it possible you feel the same
I can see it in your eyes
and with the smile upon your face
That can't be a disguise....

Kissing my neck so tenderly
and the whispers in my ear
My mind went blank momentarily...
Yes!you said what I've been longing to hear!
I'm light headed and floating
Over come with love from you
My feet not touching the ground
Oh! yes,I do love you too.

    This is good and would go well in the book. Can you correct the capitals and that word and let me know. If you are happy to be included I will then add your poem.

      Yes over come is two words. I do believe. You can put the capitals where you think I need them. Thx for the comment.

    Well done!

    Dear LILREDLLL - it is I, your Secret Unknown - I signed on AP yesterday as a new member and left some comments on poems; yours was among them. Today, arriving here, I found that my page had been deleted because AP made some changes. However, comments I made on poetry were not lost, but rather attributed to "Unknown User." So shall we try the dance again?

    What do I think? (Well, that's what AP is asking me above.) I think I'm going to take up slow dancing and hope that you have room left on your dance-card for me! This is some romantic poem! The images it brings forth are like something out of a gentler, more sensitive era. It seems to me that some of today's younger women could use a 101 class on bashfulness and subtle expressions of love, not to mention dressing less provocatively. Actually, there are some males left, at least in WY, who really prefer the more subtle approach! There isn't one thing I'd change about this – it stands well on its own, flows like a smooth, lazy river and rhymes just right. If I’m required to leave a suggestion, there is only one I can make - there is no need to work on your spelling!

    With your permission, I'm adding you to my favorites list. Looking forward to reading more of your work in the future.

    I loved the positive emotion in this piece. I really got a feeling from the female side of what a dance and a (goose bummps) kiss on the neck can mean. Thanks for the thoughts and words.

    The wishful pursuit of being swept off your feet literally means that this poet has a deep feel for romance and constanly beleives in fairytales and the perfect man. Here you have him honey! lovely!
