A White Rose
The red rose whispers of passion,
And the white rose breathes of love;
O, the red rose is a falcon,
And the white rose is a dove.
But I send you a cream-white rosebud
With a flush on its petal tips;
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips.-
J B O'Reilly (1844-1890) -

I loved her for that she was beautiful

I loved her for that she was beautiful;
And that to me she seem'd to be all Nature,
And all varieties of things in one:
Would set at night in clouds of tears, and rise
All light and laughter in the morning; fear
No petty customs nor appearances;
But think what others only dream'd about;
And say what others did but think; and do
What others dared not do: so pure withal
In soul; in heart and act such conscious yet
Such perfect innocence, she made round her
A halo of delight. 'Twas these which won me;—
And that she never school'd within her breast
One thought or feeling, but gave holiday
To all; and that she made all even mine
In the communion of love: and we
Grew like each other, for we loved each other;
She, mild and generous as the air in spring;
And I, like earth all budding out with love.

You believe I didn't care that I wouldn't miss u, or give u a thought ever again..
I couldn't speak, the reason u didn't see me crying was because of the rain...
U said, "What about me?"
I couldn't answer, the answer was killing me...
U said,"Did U ever love me?"
My words were drowning in my tears...
But u didn't see me crying because of the rain..
U believe I didn't want to hold u, when my arms were arching for ur loving...
U believe I never wanted u, every bit of my heart was busting...
Never say I LOVE U if u really don't care...
Never talk about feelings if they aren't really there...
Never hold my hand is u going to break my heart...
Never say u are going to if u don't plan to start...
Never look into my eyes if all u do is lie..
Never say hi if u really mean goodbye...
If u really mean forever then say u will try...
Never say forever because forever makes me cry...

One day I wrote her name upon the strand

One day I wrote her name upon the strand,
But came the waves and washed it away:
Again I wrote it with a second hand,
But came the tide, and made my pains his prey.
Vain man, said she, that dost in vain assay
A mortal thing so to immortalize!
For I myself shall like to this decay,
And eek my name be wiped out likewise.
Not so (quoth I), let baser things devise
To die in dust, but you shall live by fame:
My verse your virtues rare shall eternize,
And in the heavens write your glorious name;
Where, whenas death shall all the world subdue,
Our love shall live, and later life renew.

-Edmund Spenser

Thoughts as soft as velvet gently drift into
my mind, Reminiscent lover's touch,
another place and time.
My body aches to hold you close,
my heart beats pure & fast,
I embrace the feel of your sweet taste,
to have you here at last.
Fingertips caressing as the passion starts to rise,
the love you're making to me shines
softly through your eyes,
as I feel you deep within me &
I'm lost in all your charms,
the only place my heart desires
is the comfort of your arms...

Come to me in my dreams, and then
By day I shall be well again!
For then the night will more than pay
The hopeless longing of the day.

Come, as thou cam'st a thousand times,
A messenger from radiant climes,
And smile on thy new world, and be
As kind to others as to me!

Or, as thou never cam'st in sooth,
Come now, and let me dream it truth;
And part my hair, and kiss my brow,
And say: My love! why sufferest thou?

Come to me in my dreams, and then
By day I shall be well again!
For then the night will more than pay
The hopeless longing of the day.

Affirmation

Before the sun splashed orange
against an obsidian sky creating purple,
Before the moon and stars were placed
upon the night to give it beauty
You loved me.

The oceans had not yet begun their watery chorus
The earth was barren and without purpose
when you first cared for me.
