PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Can I write you

May I slip into your eyes

In search of words to describe



Can I move as a soft caress

Upon your skin

So as to fill my pages



Can I bathe within

The trance of your beauty

Gathering words of poetry



May I capture your glow

Your warmth, your smile…

Your memory



For life has been upon me such

That I know

I cannot long hold you



For an angel never could be held



But if you will

Might I hold you dear, forever

Upon the weathered linen pages

Of my mind
