Love Me This Moment

Love me only,
inhale my flaws
within your soul,
discarding them

forever...

Teach me
to love myself,
and in return

you...

Love me tomorrow,
believe in who I am.
Come within me,
complete my form.

Love me now,
share your ecstasy
with me;
entirely.

Love me gently,
caress my pain
with your breath,
allow me
a degree of warmth.

Love me forever
and perhaps longer,
yet for now

love me this moment...

    To find true love such as this, she must be simply amazing! We search our whole lives for someone real and tangible...a love of never ending! Beautiful penning once again.

    Genuine

    A sincere and refreshingly honest request. In its simplicity, it shines. Nothing grandiose here, just a moment in real time, and a genuine wish. "Inhale my flaws
    within your soul, discarding them forever" is a rare thought, and an amazing one. Congratulations on the trophy.

    Sorry....

    I am so stiff upper-lippy and reserved that even though I can see it is written with a fine lightness, I somehow cannot get into it. In the same way, although I don't understand the rules, glad for you about the progress of the Redsox

    These words wash over the reader like a gentle tide, flow around as soft music. Very lovely in both presentation and message. The prompt suits this so well because this poem reads like music. well done, poet

  • You worded this perfectly... The dreamy flow to this write is beautiful,a perfect description of how it should be, but is not always. Your first 2 stanza blew me away, up to the very last word...

    I applaud you...

    It is beautiful dear poet...

    to drink in the flavior Divine and cross the sails with wine to dream of life to come and the message so did rhyme.. with the meaning of life and the one you love... beautiful dear one hugs always Angel♥

  • Every where I turn.... * SIGH *

    I feel like I'm going through the blazing fire of changes - with little true knowledge of what that means, but think I figured out the gist of it.

    I am in awe of the beauty and knowledge all woven together into that fine tapestry of poetry at it's best.

    So very, very far beyond well done.

    Love & Blessings,

    Very nice use of words here John, this is perfect just the simple and delicate framework of a sweet little song.

    This is not a work of pleading but a tender song that requests a solitary emotion, the give and take of it. Yes, this is quite lyrical. I hear a flute, and a chello, even a folk guitar... Yes indeed, very nice, soothing, and melodic. I wish you well in the challenge.


    Much Love ♥
