For the One Who Smiled

by LadyPearl   Jan 13, 2007


If there was ever perfection
May the answer lie in him
With eyes the ocean envy
And a beauty where for once,
Heaven tripped

He carried on the day
As though life was nothin more
Than a self-written play
An act of true love and joy
Nothing more than that

I myself hid away from him
Why would such a being even
Glance upon my shallow skin
When even the liveliest spirit
Shrivel at my touch

Yet he looked, he looked indeed
And I saw nothing in his eyes
but a calm swaying of a tree
Feeling my wind, my emotions
Knowing my soul

Oh how I love him that day
Smiling back when he passed by
Though I know he could never
Accept the discords in us
He was my friend of love

They say friendship is just as much
As love between a men and women
And such truth lie in this words
I'll never forget our silent passion

    Great write... Full of emotions that can only come from the heart... Love the opening... so powerful...

    "If there was ever perfection
    May the answer lie in him..."

    Only comment I have is "And such truth lie in this words" should be "And such truth lie in these words". Other then that... great write... keep up the great work! 5/5

    You have such great emotion in all of your poems, and I love it. It adds so much to both the expression and the depth of the poem.

    Your descriptions were wonderful. They really gave me an image in my head about what you're trying to describe.

    The flow was good, but a little off in some places more than others. But no one's perfect, so I'd say you did a great job.

    I rarely ever tell you that you need to fix something in your poems. You just write so well that it's almost flawless. You should write one bad just for me. =P Lol. Keep it up. 5/5 xoxo
