You kissed my knee so softly then
And pressed it to your breast.
And then you turned your head to me
And laid it there to rest.

this is a very powerful and impressive piece. filled with such emotions and beauty.
I liked this one. Not sappy. Begins with tender love yet not graphic and ends with pain and loss. Evoked emotion in me which is good.
This is wonderful. It makes me very sad, though. I feel like there's a person like this to everyone...a feeling commonly experienced. Great job.
This is so soft and preciously beautiful... yet is heavy with sorrow and longing. Masterfully done... even more incredible due to the feeling of honesty it has.
beautiful piece again. well thought through, lovely
ohhhhh........this is such a lovely write.......sad......longing.......well penned
Wow that was great... I followed it closely, great rhyme... and the dreams - I often live just for my dreams too... great work.
dreams are nice but howlong time we can dream! love is not far us but we cant see it because we are blinds when we lost, we understood.beautiful to read it, i remembered my past
Who knows...perhaps the 'perfect' love...is indeed the one that we never really know... Very poignant...very sweet...very lovely! Hugs, Dee
This is a beautiful poem and well written. I could only hope to ever have such tallent.
Wolfey....Wolfey, Longing, love, the emptiness and the pain's there, in your eyes, in your hands and your words....not empty though - this is rich with what and who you are....rrrrrrhhhr wolfey - you are human and have a heart! ! A wonderful and gripping piece - well done. Sylvi
It's an awesome poem, and conveys the sorrow and longing perfectly! Deb
This strikes me as a haunting tribute to a succubus of sorts. The smooth meter and rhymes give it a classical, romantic feel, but this is far from an ordinary poem. The images are crisp and palapble, and the longing is perfectly stated, coming thru like a faint sobbing in the middle of the night, when the source cannot be pinpointed and the hearer either tries to ignore it or suspects a ghostly presence. I don't have a Hall of Fame, but this definitely makes the favorites list. A 10 if ever there was one.
i don't know what i could write here that wasn't already written by somebody else...i only hope that this love is not only somthing belonging to your imagination, and that in reality you knew that 'one and only' person who would make your heart skip a beat... Lilly x
It's in our dreams where anything is possible. Reality is much too harsh sometimes. This is a beautiful poem, even if I can relate to the sadness and longing you've expressed. ~ Sara
Loved the Story in this poem, one that I'm sure all can relate too.
It realy is disappointing to wake up after a beautiful dream knowing that it is not real...heheheh...
''And I turned to rise in sorrow For dreams that go away.'' .......................................i enjoyed this read immensely....+
