Love Poetry

 Forever Friends

You are my friend for always and forever.
It's you on my mind now and forever.

Being next to you is my hearts desire.
I long to hold you close with these aspires.

Longing for your love drives me wild.
It's hard to withhold the love I feel for you inside.

I can feel your heartbeat when you're near me.
When you hold me close your breath is on my ear.

When I kiss your lips I can't control the quivering inside.
I want so much to give you all my love
but know we need to decide
will this be good for me or too wild.

To love you means giving you my all
and I am afraid it will drive you away as it did before.
You found someone else when I said good-bye.

Don't ever leave me again my friend
for I need you near my heart and in my soul.
I cherish our friendship and hold you dear to me.

I want to express my feelings in words
but the words are hard to find.
I can do better at expressing my love
by showing you from deep inside.

Can we be together again my friend
at a time when it's not to far away but close at tide?

I would like to fly away with you on the wings of a dove
to soar to the heights of the sky.

Just to bask in the feelings of our love
holding each other close that love is all we feel inside.

 To Hold You Is My Desire

You mean so much to me my friend.
You know me so well
and your unconditional acceptance of me
is overwhelming.
I just want to hold you in my arms
and feel your love surround me.
To be near you is beyond all I could desire.
I need you in my life right now
and don't want you to disappear
again as you did before.
 

I would like to turn back
the hands of the clock
and see you in those days
when we were both single and free.
I was so careless with my love
for you that all I wanted was to just
shower you with hugs and kisses
and get close to you.
 

Time goes by too quickly
when we are together
and I would love to be able
to stop the hands of the clock
when you are near me.
What do I do to you with my words?
What feelings do you feel for me?
What do you desire when you're near me?
Oh to be with you again is all I need!
 

To take time to get to know you
would be like lying on a soft billowy cloud.
To float away and be free
to see what we are like inside
each others minds and beings.
My heart cries out for you
to love me with all of you.  I
know this cannot be
but I can believe that
someday it will come to pass.
 

I've wanted you to be
my knight in shining armor
and rescue me
from my prison of pain and heartache.
To come and sweep me off my feet
and carry me away
to our forever castle
in the heights of heaven.
To bring joy and happiness
once again within my very soul.
My heart is finding a place
for the words that I feel inside of me.

I need you my friend, now and forever.

"COMPASSIONATE MAN"

What man is this so compassionate you can feel
    his emotions through the internet?
A man whose very passion strikes a spark
    that lights the fire of desire in my heart.
A man who I see is the very desire I need.
A man that yearns for compassion in return
   Whose honesty goes beyond degree.

What man is this that I see?
So filled with passion he
seems so wild, and free?
Who strikes the spark of desire in me?
He holds a flame that lights the fire
to place my heart in wild attire.
He makes me laugh, and makes me cry,
   But holds a love that enfolds my life.

His words are sweet music to my ears.
When I'm with him I feel a fullness inside
that melts my heart like flowing ebb tide.
My heart I give to him.
The way he hears my feeble words
and reaches beyond the real me.
He touches my emotions that feel
so happy and free when we are
together chatting endlessly.

"My Passion"

   My passion blazes within my flesh, that
   no one seems to see. I desire to let it all
   go free but not the right one yet for me.
My passion burns within my loins so
   strong and sexily. Who will come and fill
   this need and love me so completely?

   This strong desire that fills my heart for
   someone to come love me. Where do I
   go to find this love and receive the
   passion and love I need?
