What is the first love poem you ever wrote and then shared with that person?
I see love poems posted here all the time, and I wonder well if you shared it, how did that work out for you? Please share the poem and the results (if you like).
Here’s my first love poem ever that I gave to the woman who became my wife (so it worked out for me). I know it isn’t that long, but I wasn’t used to writing love poetry.
Dark Waters
In the feeling, there is the risk
that we might feel.
To slip beyond touch, the light
caress, to drown in dark waters
beyond knowing
Where words become redundancies.
Where thoughts slow…slow…
Stop.
In the stillness of the moment there is peace.
As the waves retreat,
carrying us beyond our shores.
Will the rain dance with joy, falling into your footprints?
Did the Sun rise early to caress your face?
Did the wind whisper your name as it past my window ?
And were the trees moaning softly as you walked beneath?
what sad man will not hold your hand,
And have his Soul lifted by your silent presence?
What poor soul will become wealthy from seeing your generous smile?
I wrote that for my wife just after we got married in 1985, she found a misspelled word,circled it in red ink and gave it back to me. she never got another one and 15 years later i walked out on her and never looked back, God she was a beast!
