Closing my eyes, my mind takes me someplace – someplace far away from the emptiness of here.
Away to a place hanging in limbo, where you must wait – wait patiently for time to draw us near.
Into the darkness I dive, going deeper – deeper into you I fall so recklessly, riding this kismet.
Sparks of fire set blazes aglow, as my soul awakens – awakens anticipation for each passion fueled visit.
Needing you, craving you, wanting to declare my love to the world – the world forcefully situating us apart.
Take me, save me, devour me, don’t you ever let me go – go on now, say you’ll keep me, this will be our start.
Let me open my eyes and find you, firmly standing there – there, contained within my absolute everything.
The waves which wash away all the binds that tie – tie me down, carry me away, take away the burning sting.
My forever, my nothing, my in between are consumed by you – by you the missing piece, I am incomplete.
Alas, you must wait in the shadows of my mind, hidden, biding my time – my time cannot be our defeat.
Please, I’m begging you, come to my surface, come into the light – light up my life with the fires raging inside.
Claim me for yours, build our heaven in the sky, there is nothing more we could lose – lose we will if we never tried.
Closing my eyes takes me away some place – some place where kismet led, to seek what was mine.
Finding you there, I can’t let you go – go on, say you feel the same…
I’m more to you then simply a lover’s Valentine.

Aww, thank you! My empathy and always highly emotional state must push through my words… I just let my soul take control of the pen.

Thanks! The first couple stanzas were done unintentional, but when I realized it, I just ran with it and surprised myself with how it turned out.

I haven’t read a poem in that style. I love it! The word repetition really gets the point across fluently.

It started as an accidental coincidence in the first two stanzas, so I just ran with it. The idea for the italics came last, and I wasn’t sure it was going to work. I completely surprised myself with this.
