Love's Beauty
Your eyes are not the eyes of a faery
They have not the cold beauty of a stone
They command not the fires of raw passion in me
But quiet, gentle love is in their gleam
Your frame is not the frame of a willow
Slender and graceful as shadow's whisper
But small, and real, and here beside me
Your face near mine is no soon-forgotten dream
Your hair is not the hair of an elf maiden
With every lock composed of shining gold
It's tresses hang short, but light and free
Their latered waves like ripples in a stream
Your hair is rich with scent so sweet
The breeze is captured in it's brunette strands
I hold your head softly in my hands
As it falls around your lovely face
Your frame is alive and happy
A glowing and joyful sight to see
And happier, I will never be
Than with you in this place
Your eyes are without compare
The jade concealed withen their swirling
Enchanting, mystic, is pure as can be
And glimer with bright love, the treasure of our race
Love is your robe, love is my wings
Love speeds me to your side
Love is all that keeps me alive
Till I can be with you again

I'm sorry book but I only have time to read one right now and I chose the last one you posted... I loved it the rhythm was a bit hard to catch it took me a couple reads, But overall I loved it, It's a very emotional poem and to be honest it reminds me of the first time I met my wife, We sat out on the balcony of her hotel room (she flew in for a week) and we laid together on the steps her head in my lap as I brushed the hair out of her face... I'm sorry I'm babbling, I just wanted to share that moment with you as it's what your poem brought me to, I thought you might appreciate it. In short Great work as always Keep it up man you have true talent And I love reading your poems I only wish I had more time...
oh and are you Also this Black Incense person? If not and if you want I'll Remove their post for you PM me as I'll prolly be busy for the next few days...
take it easy man, and remember stay above the water.

Have people told you your work is emo? LOL I laugh at them. Sometimes the best poetry is work that is dark, mysterious and yet holds so much emotion. I read "▪Desperate for your Love▪" and fell in love with it.

Life Beneath the Waves
The vast Sea. Cold, dark, deep, demure
Pulling gently at the myriad of grains
Grains of pale white sand upon the shore
Pulled to the sea floor, where they remain
But what if a Wise One’s careful hand
Inscribed on that shore the secrets of all time
Though, regardless, shifting sand
Washed away wisdom beneath the brine
And those are the secrets you need
To go back, to reverse your tragic past
So ride on the sea’s foamy steed
To find wisdom’s grains at last
You’ll never find them, wherever you roam
Gone are the words of Wisdom’s sage
And as you look beneath the foam
You waste your life beneath the waves
Life beneath waves of regret and loss
Were better than facing your future
No matter how high the cost
So no future life did you ensure
Had you faced your problems, not running away
My words would have little meaning here
But you never sought Wisdom anyway
You hid beneath water to disguise the tears
You wasted life, beneath the waves…

~The Shore and the Sea~
Silver stars hang in a velvet sky
Waves cross the silver sands
Crashing down upon the strand
As I look on, and wonder why
As I stand twixt the Shore and the Sea
The glimmering waves dance sweetly
As the undines below entwine
In seaweed green, beneath the brine
Their voices calling plaintively
As I stand twixt the Shore and the Sea
The waving branches of the trees
The dryads singing ‘neath the sky
The leaves above rustle and sigh
And they lift their song beneath the leaves
As I stand twixt the Shore and the Sea
The undines call out to me
Of sadness, depth, and sorrow
Of pain, but loving and living tomorrow
Of looking past sadness, hopefully
As I stand twixt the Shore and the Sea
The dryads sing of revelry, unrestrained
Abd everything you ever wanted
But revelry like this, empty, is faulted
And it fades before ‘tis gained
As I stand twixt the Shore and the Sea
The waters of hope beckon to me
And I leave the sky behind
I leave it’s fading life
For the eternity awaiting me…
And I walk from the Shore to the Sea

I really like your poetry Silver. Your a wonderful poet. I can't imigine the calibur of writer you'll be when you're older if you keep writing. I really liked 'Life Beneath the Waves' and 'Prison of My Crafting/Fortress of My Heart' reminds me of the movie The Wall by Pink Floyd. (not a happy movie btw)

She did, but, I like having it all in one place here, so I can look over it. But I'll double post them, because no one ever reads the long threads, only the new ones. lol
