Romantic Poem

This is my first poem ever, inspired by pain, passion and a love that can never be. This poem is for the only woman that has ever held my heart the way she does. Our story is one that may never possess a happy ending. But I drawn warmth from my love for her and the love I know she shares. She is my soulmate; there shall never be another.

Amazing. I share a similar journey to be with the one I love most. Through trial and tribulation, and by the brink of never again, we found together forever.

Just Slightly Off The Mark

You are the one I have known throughout the years,
Together sharing each other's dreams hopes and fears.
You are the precious one that could have only come from above.
The more I know you, the more I must ask, could this be love?
Grand feelings, never gone from our hearts and not far from the mind.
On this journey a path awaits us both, but apart we must find.

Our timing not right, just slightly off the mark.

To my joy I hear that lovely voice and your beautiful face.
I don't feel a moment has passed since we last left this place.
That feeling of peace and warmth from your arms, truly second to none.
The one that I know and the one who knows me, could this be the one?
Her eyes, her lips, my heart beats fast at the mention of her name. 
Both on this path of life, something different, but our paths not the same.

Our timing not right, just slightly off the mark.

Then fate again brings us together once more.
Our hearts charged with feelings we've not felt before.
I close my eyes and see the perfection in your smile.
Your presents, your smile, a love not felt in a long while.
Our hearts forever entwined the truth has always been there.
The love, the heat, the passion as we become one without care. 
My heart is yours; I happily give without shame.
Once again torn apart, our paths not the same.

Our timing not right, just slightly off the mark.

I carry you silently in my soul, our love strong and true.
No one before has possessed my heart such as you.
All since have paled in the radiance of you eyes.
None other will have my heart no matter how she tries.

Our timing not right, just slightly off the mark.

I pray for that wonderful day when our time finally arrives.
Our day to dance, our day to love, our day to truly share our lives.
Our hearts joined as one, a union that will surely last.
The day to declare to all our silence a thing of the past.
To proclaim daily this tribute of love that shall end never.
You are my best friend, the love of my life, now and forever.

Our timing finally right, forever on the mark.
