One Year

Prologue

Roses are red,
Violets are blue
Clichés are old
My words are new

---

Thirty One Million, Five Hundred And Thirty Six Thousand Seconds…And Counting…

T hank you for all the sweet kisses
W here you held your head close to mine
E ntwining our hands as we slowly embrace
L ovingly send shivers down my spine
V elvet smooth skin I long to hold
E ver so delicate to the touch

M issing the way that you hug me
O nly always and so much
N ever will I stop feeling
T he emotions I have towards you
H eartbeats will always keep skipping
S o long as yours always do too

---

One Year Of Happiness

One year of holding hands
One year where we took a chance
One year of laughs and one year of smiles
One year of far too many miles

One year of loving from deep within
One year of kissing, sharing our skin
One year of being in each others arms
One year protecting each other from harm

One year of hugging, holding you tight
One year of romance, fun and delight
One year of beauty, innocence and praise
One year to cherish, forever, always

One year with you, so full of bliss
Is a whole lifetime’s worth of happiness
A year of passion, joy, mine and yours
Hopefully followed by many years more

---

Forever Grateful

T imeless memories, always mine
H earts on fire as souls entwine, with
A ll our sweetness and all our strength
N ever will this have to end
K nowing we always have each other

Y oung but still very much lovers
O nly apart for a short while
U ntil we can finally share our smiles

Our Love

One year of your love
One year of my love
One year of our love
One year of true love

Engraved Memories [21 Lines, 21st May]

The water park, the football pitch,
“Fucking Barstard”, our first kiss,
All my memories of perfect bliss

Tiny moments I share forever
With the weight of nought, nought but a feather
But in my heart, I will always treasure

Under the stars, St Catherine’s Hill
Bournemouth beach, “watching” films
Nursing me better when I was ill

Tiny moments that make me smile
That makes me laugh, or make me cry
Those tiny moments…that make up my life

The paddling pool, our caterpillar friend
Wishing each time it didn’t have to end
Our perfect, sweet, short weekends

Tiny moments, huge in my mind
Because they are only yours and mine
Kept safe together for all of time

Going to Greece, Chopsticks too
For this and more, I thank you
For these are the reasons why I love you

---

One Line For Each Month

For all the laughter we have shared, I thank you
For the great times you have shown me, even more
For everything you have given and given up for me
I cannot tell you how much I adore
The feelings I have for you are priceless
You can’t put a value on love
And I long for the time when we’re always together
So I don’t have to miss your soft-sensual touch
I’ll try and always repay the favour
By always being here by your side
And I’d give up everything if I needed to
Because I just want you here in my life

---

Five Hundred And Twenty Five Thousand, Six Hundred Minutes…So Far…

O mnipotent
N ow and always
E vergreen is our love

Y ours: truly, madly, deeply
E ternally, endlessly
A lways and now
R eligiously

---

In Dances With Butterflies

Hold me in your fragile arms
And slowly shut your eyes
Kiss me like the first time, as
In dance the butterflies

Slowly shut your weary eyes
And I’ll protect you while you sleep
I’ll fight off all your broken dreams
And things that make you weak

Kiss me like the first time
Let that spark again ignite
As if it were a blossoming star
Quietly shining in the night

In dances with butterflies
Where we can’t come to harm
I’ll kiss you and protect you still
In my fragile, broken arms

---

I Love You

I long for you to be near me

L ove the sweet smile in your voice
O nly you can make me feel special
V ehemently my only choice
E ternity patiently awaits us

Y ours forever, just me and you
O nly we can make it together
U nsung heroes through and through

---

Epilogue

Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
The clichés are in
I’ll always love you

Author notes

Well they're personal, so I don't really care if you don't like them or not, there is only one person who I want to like them and she does so, if you don't, I don't want to know!

Option 1, One Year

I'm sorry, I'm not sure if this is allowable because it is actually 12 poems (one for each month). And more lines than 120, though I think if you just take the poems they are less than 120 lines so...let me know.

      The fact that it's just got spaces in it doesn't change the fact it is still 123 lines. I didn't say I'd remove the spaces...it would just look like a jumbled mess and not a poem then.

        there is also the fact that you have not placed your authors name in your notes. and it isn't fair to the other contestants. i'm sorry

            that doesn't matter. of course I knew your name but you didn't add it like the rules asked. therefore, it is unfair to the contestants. if you are going to keep arguing with me I will not bother considering your poem which I was thinking of doing.

              So basically you're saying that rule was pointless. I don't see how you knowing or not knowing my name makes any difference to whether my poem deserves to win or not. I don't care whether you place it or don't but seeing as you told me you weren't going to place it and now you're saying you were thinking about it kinda makes me think like you have no idea. Do what you want, I really do not mind.

    this is a little long...about 60 lines to long. sorry. I'll still comment though, but you won't win anything sorry. if you want you can take a poem out and throw it in instead of this one. i don't mind at all. the twelve poems is quite an interesting idea. something I haven't come across before. The acrostics is also something I don't see too much of so I was suprised to see them. You did a nice job. sorry you can't win anything. you can enter one or two of them or maybe six as in half a year sort of thing. i don't know. take it how you will. thank you for entering

      I just copied and pasted it into word and removed all the spaces between the poems. Including the individual titles it is 123 lines long. I understand if that is still too long though. And don't apologise, it's not your fault if I don't win anything, you have to stick to your rules so all is fair. Thanks for still commenting.

      Good luck with your contest x

    I like how this feels as if to be several different works in one package. That is an interesting way of allowing the reader to better enjoy your work, in the sense that you take the care to provide something for everyone.

    Always nice to see new ideas as I transverse the myriad works entered into this contest.

    Thank you for your entry,

    well, as i am a judge in this contest i will give my honest opinion as that is my job. i suppose it is a great thing that i really like this poem. it is one of the few i have seen where the lack of punctuation does not detract from the writing itself. {a personal preference} i hope she likes it as well as i did. i wish you luck in this qualifier round. viyanna rosemarie

    haha .. I LIKE IT !!!
    really george, this is very very beautiful
    each poem was excellent
    ( I especially liked the prologue, but gots no one to use it on at the moment.)
    I don't know if you hesitated when posting this
    But I did more than hesitation when I posted 14 Notes
    And it was really damaging me to put in each note
    each little writing that I spend hours to make
    and even more hours to put together
    writing each of them in my own handwriting
    Giving them to random people
    Giving them a time to go and just give it to yash
    Then checking and making sure everyone I gave it to .. gave him
    God, now I wish I didn't remember that.
    but yea..

    All the best to you both
    and once again, this is more than beautiful

    love ya, bro

      The only reason I hesitated in posting this was so Thom wouldn't read them before I gave her her present with them all on (which she loved!) hehe. She had to go today though =[...aww well I'm seeing her again in a few weeks! Thank you for your continued loveliness. Take care of yourself big sis! x lots of love and hugs x
