PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The intensity of life

Dims my necessity for love;



There is so much more

To behold besides

The warmth in your stare,

The feel of your skin.



I do not want to miss anything

Just because I’d rather be

In the ease of your embrace.  



What if I lose this time?



Life is so fleeting,

Sometimes cataloged

In a handful of heartbeats.



But I will hold tight to you;



Count the breaths

Escaping from love’s chest

While not disregarding

The ticking clock on the wall.  



I will sway to time’s tune,

The melody of the moment.



I will dance to my heart’s song

And never miss a beat

So when age is my partner

I will still hear the music.
