By Candlelight

Thirteen candles in a ring
Flickering gently around me as I sit
And meditate to myself
A time to sit and look inside myself
I close my eyes and breathe deep
Music plays softly, the melody encircles me
As I drift away to the hidden land inside my heart

Twenty-seven dreams flutter like moths around my head
Each one a different shade of love
Each one carrying three golden words
The golden ‘I love you’ that you inscribed upon my heart
As you left me here alone

Thirty droplets of silver linked by love
Holding you close to me even when you’re far away
Keeping you inside my heart no matter of the distance

Seven days there’s yet to be
Before we can hold each other near
Before your embrace will kill this loneliness
And two hearts will finally beat
~ As one ~

    Spectactular!!!

    Excellent,. Indeed most excellent poem. I really love that raw energy and passion of your love that burns deep within you as you write about your loverboy and how much you miss him and lone to be with him. *sigh* I know how that feeling goes where I longed to be with Jen but *sigh* oh well who knows when that will ever happen. any ways Grrrrreat poem as always much enjoyed from the 1st line the title and to the end always enjoyable. I fwelt ackward through out the poem because when I read such mushy poetry like this makes me break down which I hate admitting LOL. any ways take care and have a good one love tyour friend, Paul
