POEM OF THE SHADOW GIRL

When you speak to me,

I am like the leaf that gathers rainwater--

You are the bloom.



When you need me,

I am like the pillow someone lays her head upon--

You are the dream.



When you touch me,

I am like the cake someone steals some frosting from--

I exist for your desire.



When you are angry with me,

I am like the dented pail forgotten on the lawn--

I hold only emptiness.



And when you smile at me,

I am like a champagne geyser, I bubble and shine--

You are the midnight

You are the one I

Know can never be mine.

Aw!

Yeah, one of scads of poems I've written for someone I love dearly.

Thanks for reading!

That is really beautiful.

You are an exceptional poet, Stealth.

Thank you for reading and for the kind words, Leiandra.  :) :) :)

Stealth, you don't need kind words from anyone but editors of poetry journals!! You're poems are really excellent and should be collected in a book!

So many "poets" miss the intensity that lyric means. You get that.

Your poems are like perfect 17th century minatures worn as lockets: beautiful, powerful and such wonderful art. I would imagine people would be surprised how much you actually put into the writing to come out with the pieces you do.

Thank you.

Hmm, they might indeed! I love your comparison to the miniatures. Lovely!

There once was a crone of the winter
and I aint got nuttin aginst 'er
she is so groovy
she should be a movie
then I'd go to Blockbuster and rint 'er

:) :) :) :P

Nice poem. I like it.

Thanks, I think!!?  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Never been the subject of a limerick before and have always thought the subjects of those were somewhat less-dignified than "Goddesses of Winter!"  >:D

What the hey, I like it anyhow. :)

Thank you Ma'am.

You are welcome, but you don't need to call me, "Ma'am."

*sigh* I'm not sure I like having a reputation as a Domme.  I am a switch, and as time goes on Ell's and my relationship has levelled a lot.  I think I'd rather just be plain old Lisbeth.

Stealth, painfully proper  :P
