A deep and tender feeling of affection for or devotion to a person

Circle around this emotion we reflect our lives from
Hear the words unsaid in each other’s eyes
And condense them into thoughts our hearts are prepared to feel
Discreet yet unceasingly growing, we are now changed for always
Restrain nevermore these feelings meant for the two of us
I want to hear your heart beat for me, as mine does beat for you
Cause me to shed a single tear of rapture as you recite your much awaited hope
Kiss me with this newly acquired knowledge, may it not once more be silenced

Allowance of such knowledge proclaimed bring strong men to their knees
Nor I can handle with ease the expansiveness of such an article
Devotion of such a degree has potential to be dangerous

Cautious and careful I shall be, though at times a bit too pragmatic
All intentions deriving from an honest will to serve and protect you
Render me speechless with your passionate, ever-patient kiss
And embrace me tightly as I proclaim my love to you for the first time

    Great poem. I love that it's an acrostick! And it's not a crappy one. (ya know, My Mom Mows or something like that lol) I love acrosticks cause you can put in two messages. Sorry it's taken me so long to comment, I'm a busy butt! but awesome poem!

    oh my gosh this is absolutely amazing!! its exactly what i've been trying to do in defining love and that... feeling... just... wow. i've been trying forEVER and while i can get imagery down to try and depict it, you've used words and actually put the feeling down without a picture. KUDOS!! that was amazing...

    Ahh, nice way to declare love. Beautiful poem, nice choice of words in this one... it's not often that an acrostic is actually a good poem but this one is.

    All the best to you two.

    This is incredible. I loved your unique, original phrasing, words, emotions...

    You pulled me in. I hope that this was wonderfully appreciated, because you clearly poured out your lovely heart here.

    I can relate to the feelings, thoughts, etc. It reminds me of so much. <3
