[Your Face]

As the dawn holds hands with the moon
and the stars begin to fade.
The arms of the clock
begin their dance
as time begins to fade.
Your face
Your face
Is all I see
nothing more beautiful or radiant
then your face right next to God.
Your face
Your face
Is all I see as I drift off to sleep
at night.
Your face
Your face
is what I wish to see when I awake
at dawn’s new light.
If I had
to make one last wish
before I die.
It would be to see
Your
wonderful
beautiful face
for the last
and final time.

Thank you all, this was my first poem when I started to officially write poetry. Here is another poem I wrote it's called The 50th Wedding Anniversary. My Sophomore year of High school, I took speech class and we had to write a toast or a short speech for a formal occasion. I don't recall if we had to dress up,but it was fun none the less. I was given the topic of a 50th Anniversary, so I decided to write a poem. My girlfriend's first name at the time was Melissa...but little did I know that was also my teacher's first name as well. So you can imagine the look on her face after I finished reading this poem.

 
50th Anniversary Poem

To
My Dear Sweet Melissa
My Darling
My Bride
For 50 fantastic years
you have been my beautiful wife.
Like Rebekah
for Isaac
God has chosen
you for me
and for 50 amazing years
we have lived happily and content
and still
so madly in love
like Romeo and Juliet
we defied all
for the sake of true love
and even after 50 years.
My love still burns
for you and God alone.
My darling
My pride
My Precious One
I look forward to sharing 50 years more
with you by my side.
I love you
my beautiful wife.

Now to downplay my last poem lol, here is a poem I wrote entitled: When You Left, ironically though I was in a good relationship at the time. So I do not know where the inspiration came from, but it did.


When You Left

Forsaken, Forgotten did you to me
when I proposed
to be with thee.
That was when you departed
from me.
In so it became
forever ago
you left me,
and
the idea of "we" behind.
Now you return
and
expect “us” to be,
but foreign you became to me.
Forgotten and abandon
did the idea of "we"
became to me;
so long ago
when I first proposed the idea of "you and me ".
Now you are sad
and full of regret.
For we can never be;
as I have found another
that is actually willing
to be mine.
So
now you know the truth of
what love can be:
Forever:
Forsaken
Forgotten
Abandon  
Just like you did to me
and the idea of "we"
all those years ago
When you left…
