Close your eyes

Contributed by Loende on Tuesday, 6th September 2005 @ 03:31:11 AM in AEST
Topic: LoveRemembered



Close your eyes

There is an echo to touch.
The soul remembers it all too well.
For when the veil between life and dream
Shimmers into form around us,
When the control that we hold so firm,
Shakes free and soars,
Oh, the memory returns.

Can you feel it? That halting touch?
A subtle memory of heat
A whispered caress, a fleeting glance,
A passionate and fevered embrace.
The soft brush of a palm
Your answering rise of flesh
Until the moment is so drawn out
That you can feel the very air around you.

Close your eyes then and slip gently into that veil
That place of neither here nor there.
Let it close 'round you, as easy as breathing.
Throw wide, the gates of your guarded, wounded heart
Close your eyes,
And fall in love again.

Well now, this is good stuff! Beautiful imagery and feeling woven together. You've done a great job of describing in poetic fashion that aye meikle strange feeling, that is nae sae hard tae feel but none sae easy tae describe. A braw piece.

All I can say is... Beautifull. I had goose pimples as I read this one! You paid a lot of attention to the flow and consistancy of the poem, which makes it easy to read, understand and feel.

Good job!

What a gorgeous piece! One would have to be entirely ignorant of passion to not be moved by this. I can only imagine that a large majority of readers actually DID close their eyes at the conclusion of this piece. I know I did...

Beautiful, beautiful work. May you never set down your pen again, Loende... for clearly, you were meant for this.


Swept away,
~Snemmy
