Silence Is Perfectly Fine

silence is perfectly fine, our
heartbeats are all I need to hear to
allow me to feel at peace
where this road will take us is
now left to be discovered
as we entwine our fingers
and proceed forward
not sure of what lies ahead
depending on each other to make it through
each step strengthens our commitment
restricted by nothing
immense peace befalls us as the
completion of our hearts begins
flawless love is formed
our hearts merge
restoring faith
existing only for each other
through the hardest of times we will
emerge as a stronger union.
recognizing each other’s continual growth and
nourishing it patiently
inspiring each other until the end.
together we face everything and stand as one.
yielding to no obstacles placed in our way.

    It's a beautiful poem, and the acrostic in it is very cute. I think the poem flows very well, although the lack of puncutation towards the beginning of the poem makes it a little harder to read. Overall very nice, though.

    This has real flow. I liked the hidden message down the side, although I suspect it was for your benefit more than for ours. All in all this was a great poem.

    a beautiful write with great flow and powerful language. Just a note...towards the end you added punctuation, where you didn't in the begining of the piece. Other than that, a great inspirational write.

    Wonderful acrostic. When I try to write these they sound so bad. Thank you for entering, and good luck to you.

    This is a very well done acrostic, and my only suggestion is, I noticed at the end you used punctuation, but not through out the rest of the piece. I thought if you had used more through the piece it would give the poem a more sense of togetherness. Or to take out the last punctuations. I'm sorry, it just looks weird to me, and I just found myself adding commas and periods, so I could read it clearly. But that's just me, and I know that this is just lovely as it is.

    Good luck in the contest.

    awsome poem. i love when people take a name or word and use it for the first letter of each line. kinda hard for me to do, but you did it very well.

    Such a sweet love song this is....for all eternity! You did a great job of writing this in an acrostic style - how much your Eric must love this! Love shines from the words so lovingly painted here! Good luck in the contest - and enjoy love!

    What a sweet portrait of love! You really communicate the peace of a relationship in which each is content with the other, and there is no need for striving. It was a pleasure to read.

    I really like this! It reminds me of a poem I wrote recently describing love and the peace that comes over you when you are so in synch with someone. You describe this feeling so beautifully and eloquently,and it flows really well; a pleasure to read and enjoy the magic. May I play dumb though? I don't know what an acrostic is! Lily

    Very nice job. I'm happy for you two. This is a new style to me. Have not seen it before. You pulled it off expertly. It flowed very nice, and it didn't get all wonky just to maintain the style. Maybe I'll try it one of these days.

    Peace.

    I love how this poem starts out soft and quiet, then builds to a very stong assertive ending. like a climax, if you will. LOL I love how you write of sticking together through hard times, nourishing each other's growth, and standing as one through all the obstacles. these are the characteristics of the kind of love that binds and blossoms and can't be derailed. stellar poem!
