Still, She Is Desirable

Blindfolded and out of my reach, My kissing with her Had been put with a cease. Our mouths explored, I desired her tastes Her lips were of a shaded red You stained my soul, for this I said. She was my desire that I had gazed, Our vows of unity have amazed Desires of us we did explore I grabbed your hair as you wanted more. Deep I did go inside, To your soul, I did abide Our passions flowed it was with bliss You were my wife, you still exist. With our pleasures did we enjoy, We were not wrong, having been our ploy My love for you I refuse to let go For if I do, I will implode. It's now I say God needed you, I will admit, I wanted that to I had done this out of selflessness I could not bear you were suffering. Don't get me wrong for God understands, It was my duty, He so commands Never should I see you suffering I had to let you slide into a buffering. My love is still just as strong for you, Though you're not here, I had to let go You were my wife then, You still will be tomorrow. Our story of a love between, Husband & wife, working as a team We had to make it work Your love for me, you were my perk. But then you disappeared, As I had seen You faded into the lights Of the moons-beam. I love you still, Shannon!

Hi, Doris! Thank you, for your belief in me. This road was a "Choice", that I took after everything fell apart and shattered my family. There's a great lesson for me to be learned, in me coming back to life where I have chosen to turn my back on for this tragedy, 22 years ago. I hope soon in the future I will be able to finish the horrific event and place here in the short story division. Most of my love poetry is of my wife, for she brought adventure, style, class, and just ignited my soul. I truly thank you, from the center of my heart, for helping me find my way back to life, all of you here. Best of Wishes, William

And, Doris? I still sin, because of a sinful world. I am in this world, but not of this world. I bid you well my friend, And, I have never in all my days found the best group of people, you all here, at PoetrySoup, and, as being a community and fellow writer, some days I think I'm selling you guys short. Before I came here, I really didn't know the many different categories of poems, not categories, genre of poems, truly I didn't. And just the past year I'd say, you guy & gals been teaching me more then anyone trying to tell me outside the Soup, everyone of you. But I haven't really read other's poem, like I should be, being the fellow writer. And I also know, you all have slowed those rivers of tears that flooded my eyes, when it come time to write more in that tragic event. And, I love you all not really knowing any of you, but love is the correct word that evokes in my heart for you all. I find myself grateful, humbled, and blessed to be around such a group. Best of Wishes, William

Hello, Doris! Thank you, in the genorosity of your words. She was my everything and I'll never let the woman go. The mother of my children. She deserved the tribute for allowing me, choosen me to be the father of our children. I take life at a very deep level. Even though the darkness I'm trying to come out of, and once again enjoy what ever God see's fit for me to still live. But, I shall never turn my back to Him, for He chooses me to keep in His clutch. He is my first acknowledgement when I wake, Good Morning Holy Spirit, I love you. Then I kiss my cat, and get about my day, or try because I still suffer all of whats happen. She was my wife then, she'll still will be tomorrow. Best of Wishes, William
