'Never be afraid to feel love...be more afraid not to'.
-Shelly Price
My poetry is written about the most exquisite emotion known to mankind...LOVE.
My poems represent the turbulent and often overwhelming feelings and emotions that I have experienced while in love. I have written about many colossal emotions...passion, lust, pain, joy, ecstasy, betrayal, anger...all centered around being in love or being heart broken because of love. I offer my poetry to you so that you may feel some of what I have felt...in LOVE.
May each of you find your true love in life...never stop looking for it until you do.
I know the words I'd like to say to you...
to give thanks for all that you've done.
But each time I try to say the words...
they escape me as fast as they come.
...
Shadows dance on the walls as I lay next to you,
I'm hypnotized by your breathing as you sleep.
I feel an overwhelming sense of peace within me,
which has caused a single tear to roll onto my cheek.
...
Closed eyes can see,
lips upon lips.
Thoughts empty of resistence,
bodies filled with urgency.
...
I've tried to write these words,
so many times before.
To say the things that are in my heart,
to the man that I adore.
...
I have loved but one man in my life...
one man that I loved who didn’t love me.
I tried to get him to open his eyes,
but his eyes were shut and too blind to see.
