A Poet
Loving a poet
can bring forth
moments of
ultimate euphoria,
as well as pain
that you feel into the depths of your core
Poetry is the religion and the muse the deity.
for the muse..
you ache
you please
you desire
while on bended knee
you break
Passion consumes
thoughts overflow into words
beauty and pain are seen deeply through the mind's eye,
and even more potent
in the depths of the soul
When a Poet loves,
every pulse of the heart will cascade
that love will be
made immortal by the power of words
flesh touched by ink stained hands
making love by the song in which your love created
the melody of words imprinted upon the heart
the lyrics tattooed upon
every inch
every crevasse
of the skin
your love becomes a poem
etched under the layers
the memory lingering
long after both hearts depart
your poem is forever aching
under that fine lining
burning through
your veins
A Poet has a restless heart
say nothing for hours
and never at complete peace
a continuous search within
never completely satisfied
words overflow onto paper
yet there is never a full understanding settled
the mind races
the heart aches
the soul longs
many emotions are never spoken
yet every truth of thought
flows with fluidity through
the ink
Loving a Poet
is to live constantly
on the edge of darkness
but forever
in the light
of beauty

The image you paint is eerily resonant.
I particularly love the final stanza...though "Loving a Poet..." and being a poet seem very similar in that regard.
A beautiful poem and the perfect opener to your work on this site.

I appreciate your kind words.
Heartiest Congratulations!
This is a truly beautiful poem, a stream of consciousness musing of the love between the inspiration and source of eloquent words, of the union of paper and ink and of immortality of the feeling beyond it's own source. It has brought back memories of a past love with surprising coincidence of expression and a keening tug at that string in my heart which I try my best to keep untouched.
Thank you, kindly. Your words are so very beautiful. I am so very honored that you shared them.
"A feeling beyond its own source"...indeed. I agree wholeheartedly.
I appreciate your very thoughtful words.
Always welcome! A genuine work of art makes it easy for the words to flow in response. And it is all the more enhanced when the art evokes extremely deep personal emotions as well.
