Her Beauty

in Romantic Poems

Look at the beauty in her eyes,
a glow that shines like the sunrise.
Her smile opens up the cloudy skies,
her laughter delights butterflies.

Look at the beauty in her eyes,
a glow that shines like the sunrise.
Her smile opens up the cloudy skies,
her laughter delights butterflies.
The ocean greets her as she passes by.
Her gorgeous toes leave their mark, saying goodbye.

Gentle breeze through her hair,
she walks elegantly while astonished eyes all stare.
Rosy cheeks cover her face.
A flower-child blossoms, kindly accepting embrace.
She is a thornless rose without compare.
She is the love my heart will forever endear.

Beauty Is Love

Beauty isn't seen by eyes.
It's felt by hearts,
Recognized by souls,
In the presence of love.

Unlocking Inner Peace

I realized that nothing in life is ever going to be exactly how I actually imagined it and an idea come to mind, that if I can find happiness within my circumstance I will always be at peace with the outcome and that in itself leads the way to making the most of life.

in Acrostic Poems

Special is an understatement,
it can't even tickle the fancy of
gold used to form thee prong
needed to hold a melodic song;

Special is an understatement,
it can't even tickle the fancy of
gold used to form thee prong
needed to hold a melodic song;
encapturing what is a gemstone
taken to where a proverb belongs.

Tears avalanche down hills of cheeks
while a voice is given hands to climb
the penultimate summit in it's peak.

Tears avalanche down hills of cheeks
while a voice is given hands to climb
the penultimate summit in it's peak.

"I don't wanna be with no one else" ,
she screams out as if it were for help,
not out of danger like in a fire outbreak
where you trapped gasping for breathe
rather the type one inlove shall attempt
to pierce heart for a lover to understand;
in life there's times when nothing matters
other than being with your lover and friend

I can not stand to gaze at
what lies adjacent to me,
jumping out of it's skin
to pierce without a sorry.

I can not stand to gaze at
what lies adjacent to me,
jumping out of it's skin
to pierce without a sorry.

Though blessing need not
to give a word of apology,
offense is taken solemnly.

Hurt shadowed circuitry
so how can I stand to see
brightness shine lovingly
if emotion esclipes poetry.

Radiance is given willingly
and all I have as an offering
are shards dipped in misery

in Short Love Poems

I love you the way the sun loves the earth,
with warmth of every feeling it has birth,
growing flowers within you, you deserve,
planting a kiss gently upon your surfaces.

I love you the way the sun loves the earth,
with warmth of every feeling it has birth,
growing flowers within you, you deserve,
planting a kiss gently upon your surfaces.
Though rhythm of our affection may dry
with devotion I'll never desert your cry
for I'll continually be the light of your life.

Like stationery I am going no where,
day in and day out I'll erase doubt
while sharpening what has lead
me to permanently mark her

Like stationery I am going no where,
day in and day out I'll erase doubt
while sharpening what has lead
me to permanently mark her
as who my name shall be
shared with, I'll colour
in the days of my life
by penning down
my signature
ruling that
she shall
be my
wife.

Tell me tales of your experiences
like a novel painting imagination.
Take me back like a time traveller
to days sleeping thumb in mouth.

Tell me tales of your experiences
like a novel painting imagination.
Take me back like a time traveller
to days sleeping thumb in mouth.

Let me feel scars from your youth,
imprints that helped shaped you.
Allow me to witness an upbringing
through moments of conversation.

Awaken a deeper understanding
within me so I feel a connection
to passion strangers cant fathom.

Speak to me about everything,
whatever intrigues your thoughts.
I'll listen closely so no need to rush.
