I walk outside alone, and the blackness of the sky makes my heart smile,
A million and one stars are as plenty as the joy I feel inside,
The moon–though now unseen–whispers only one familiar name,
And with dawn come streets of gold revealed only by the sun and Love’s flame,
The ocean in my soul began so shallow as to render bright days dry,
And like a child in rubber boots you came and stomped it deeper than your eyes,
Hues of purple, red, and blue became the colors of my heart’s content,
And smiles from thoughts of your love’s shade would nevermore into a frown be bent,
The Master at his throne calls upon his son to bear the land and sea,
While my father in his home asks the same of one such child as me,
Heavy is the load, but carry it I must–for I am man,
And arms, though firm to touch, are week without beside my Love to stand,
The ocean in my soul began so shallow as to render bright days dry,
Like a child in rubber boots you came and stomped it deeper than your eyes,
Hues of purple, red, and blue became the colors of my heart’s content,
And smiles from thoughts of your love’s shade would nevermore into a frown be bent,

Powerful
This poem , carries a lot of abstrac verses, but all come
off in a beautiful style. I particularly like the verse
heavy is the load, but carry it I must-for I am man, awesome -
What a wonderful love poem. This piece of writing is quite heart-warming and sentimental, yet it leaves me feeling a little down. I miss being in love.
Anyway, I admire your writing style. You are great with descriptions, and your words contain intense emotion. Write on! You have amazing talent!!!

A run on sentence of cliche
Could you let a little ocean out of your soul,
The fish are starting to stink. -
Aw, how sweet! I loved this part "And like a child in rubber boots you came and stomped it deeper than your eyes," I'm sure she loves this too. Glad to see you back! Hope you have a great holiday if I don't get to talk to you.
