Obsession

Sun rising
Sun setting
Our hearts beat in between
Passion swells
Ardor wanes
Obsession given wings
Fly then to me
Let not shadows slow your flight
Offer love through Sun’s beams

    You say a lot with just a few words.

    My favorite line is:
    Obsession given wings

    I enjoyed reading your poem. Thank you for entering my contest!

      thank you for reading and taking the time to comment - I looked at your homepage because I was intrigued by your site name -
      what is hidden behind "unbeliever'?

        oh jeez, so many things I suppose...it started because i'm an athiest, but then i realized there is a whole list of things i don't believe in

          sounds kinda like if you flipped it around, you'd be a believer in atheism
          I guess it'd be interesting if one pondered...opposites - or maybe ask the question, if you don't believe in something, does it really exist not to believe in in the first place... ???
          dang, gave myself a headache

    Lovely Imagery

    Your words are soft and beautiful and go perfectly with the picture. At times obsession can be magnificant when it comes to love. In some instances it can be quite demanding. Its finding that right balance that can make love wonderful and lasting. Another great poem. Short and so sweet. Thank you for sharing. Take care.

    Bless You,
    Sandy
