I hope this isn't too bad a love poem. =/ I seem to have problems with anything relating to positive emotions. So hopefully this is a decent attempt! >< Thanks for reading my poem!
1st Edit:
To Kathy
Dusk sings a ballad,
And streetlamps highlight
Your quivering lips
Searching for words,
Your glinting eyes
Brimming with expectance.
The moon hums the blues
Of your defences coming down.
Our embrace
Is a dance screaming for avowal.
Once more, I borrow the night air,
And cast the spell
With more affirmation.
“I’ll stay.”
Then the town dims,
And I hear
The stars applauding.
Original:
To Kathy
Dusk got coloured
Into ballad.
Streetlamps highlight
Eyes sparkling
With stopped tears.
Quiet hums of the moon
Signal the fortress’ crumbling.
The embrace follows,
A dance screaming for avowal.
So once more, I borrow the night air,
And cast the spell
With more affirmation.
“I’ll stay.”
Then the town dimmed,
And I hear
The stars applauding.
