ROMANTIC MUSINGS: My World
[image error]
If I saw heaven in my dreams
Would you be my angel,
I’m a demon without hell
In the mirror I see a stranger
I no longer recognize
The man I used to be,
Perhaps that’s for the best
And for you – I have become
The best version of me…
The hopeless romantic
Who had lost hope in love,
Looks on with new hope
At the stars high above
Let them fall into my lap
As you gaze up at me,
I’ll run my fingers through your hair
As I relay to you
How I hope things will be…
Let every star represent
Each moment between us,
Let us gather the galaxies
Let us do this just because
You could be my moon and stars
You could be my girl,
If I saw a planet in my dreams
Would you be my world?

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: Story Book Romance
[image error]There was a time
When—for inspiration—I would sit and hark,
Trying to find the words
Was like searching for shadows in the dark
Somehow things have changed
It all started with your smile,
I need only sit in silence
For less than a little while
In these peaceful moments
Where I cling to the realm of sleep,
I dare not open my eyes
For it is you I may no longer get to keep
Yet you linger in my thoughts
Dancing at the foot of my mountain,
My muse at the waterfall
You bring the youth to my fountain
I drink from the waters
Of my imagination,
I savor the flavor
As you prepare the pagination
Your smile started the story
With the sunrise in your eyes—a look,
Until I close my eyes that final time
You may yet become my favorite book!

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: Truth Is Love
[image error]These words are yours
These feelings you inspire,
If this pen was the torch
Then you are the fire
The heat the intensity
That comes from your gaze,
Illuminates the shadows
And sets the pages ablaze
Pushing back the darkness
Where my vulnerability hides,
Luring me to your shores
As the moon pulls the tides
From the depths of my oceans
The emotions now swirl,
I come to you in waves
There is no other girl
Timeless, unrushed
I am bound by your night,
Where the stars that guide me
Are angels in flight
If I fell into your eyes
Would your angels catch my falling words,
And bring to your fire
The truth you’ve never heard.

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: Immortal
[image error]
I sit beneath the stars
I watch as they glisten,
I find comfort in the silence
It’s for your voice that I listen
Is my name on your lips
In the whisper of the wind,
I feel an angel’s fingertips
Caress me from within
Heaven reaches into my shadows
When I think of your smile,
Even though I know I must go
I tell myself to wait a little while
If patience is a virtue
Then for you I’ll be a saint,
I’ll wait until you see me
Even if my chivalry is quaint
Though if desire is a demon
That is captured in a stare,
Then I’ll be the prisoner of heaven
And surrender to your care
Do with me as you want
Do with me as you need,
I’ll even be your deity
And show you that a demigod can bleed
Pierce my heart with your arrow
Are you the goddess of romantic love?
If so, then you are also my muse
As I sit beneath the stars above.

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: Save the Last Dance
[image error]
The preambles of love
Are an innocent dance,
The first steps found
When you are lost at first glance
The innocent poetry
Lingers on a whisper,
You have a memory from tomorrow
Of the night you first kissed her
The taste of her promise
Drips from her lips,
The elixir of heaven
You savor in sips
But that’s just the fantasy
And it doesn’t compare,
To the feel of her heartbeat
And the scent in her hair
She’s in your embrace
When you dance cheek to cheek,
She’ll become your strength
And the moment you are weak
With her in your arms
You’ll want the dance to last forever,
But in the beginning
You’ll merely be glad you are together.

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: Eternally Lovely
[image error]
I picture you in the morning
As the sun rises behind my eyes,
Your smile awakens me
And my lonely soul flies
I linger through the heavens
I walk among the clouds,
In a sea of unfamiliar faces
You stand out among the crowds
There are mountains in the distance
Rivers, lakes, and streams,
Yet nothing leaves me breathless
As your beauty—or so it seems
Leave your whisper on my lips
With traces of your heart,
Breathe me back to life
Be the muse behind my art
I’ll picture you in the evening
When I sleep and close my eyes,
I’ll hold your smile in my dreams
The way the moon is held by the skies.

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: Gift
[image error]
Could you be that poem
Written in the skies,
That song in my heart
Radiating from your eyes
The voice from heaven
When you decided to speak,
That echo of the Angels
That made my heart weak
That sound in the night
From a lifetime before,
You found my heart in the light
And left me wanting more
I crave your touch
And I crave your kiss,
I crave what I never knew
As the need I’d always miss
That smile I recognize
When I’m feeling sad,
I write you this poem
Because you make me feel glad
That I met you by chance
Or perhaps it was fate,
Even if destiny deemed
That I’d adore you too late
With your baby brown eyes
Looking at me from a distance,
I see you in my life and think
How did I miss this?
Your long curly hair
Wavy and brown,
If your scent was an ocean
Then I’d surely drown
I’d lose myself forever
In the depths of your sea,
And I think to myself
What if she had loved me?
Though even if you did
Would I be worthy of you,
Did you know your name means “gift”
In the ancient language—Hebrew
First used by Shakespeare
In the Merchant of Venice,
Now used by me
Because you truly are precious!
