I will beseech you

Posted by Robert Anderson On Tuesday, June 15, 2010 1 comments


remembering when you were mine
I held you - reluctant!

you've surged throughout my soul: traveling aimlessly...
wandering, swaying like a leaf amid an autumn's breeze
you were so afraid, so afraid

beneath the moon you shone with such an eloquence
that I could not help but to fall in love

my confessions yearned for your lips and
ever softly I wept to know your ripening thoughts
(searching for you in the night)

lover's were we when the open doors of breath
recaptured our every whim;
we've drowned, we've drowned

and so, undyingly and again:
I will beseech you.

Resonated

no fairer journey dwells in me
then that which you've described
with every verse you gave birth to
by which your heart inscribed

your wit and wisdom met with life
and beauty to adieu
with every stroke of genius
the things that paint love blue

I cannot help but to exist
for how you gave me breath
'tis as you know where I have been
then stole me from my death

one final time to paint the scene
of all I've longed to know
I've crossed your path through every word
you wrote so long ago 


Author Notes: This piece was originally inspired by the poetry and poets of the Romantic Era.

Unto The Looking Glass

Posted by Robert Anderson On Tuesday, June 1, 2010 0 comments

my ink amid the page immortalized
of thought i've dared to string unto with heart
the preciousness of time in all life's guise
lest at the end my paper shrouds in dark

when this does task my soul to fatefulness
in all my merest promise to anew
the whispers of the glory i profess
they stir from what this life had taught me through

so let the heavens high above take pace
at gracing me with all i might avail
tonight it might be hours i embrace
forever as the stars make way to trail

along the things that guide me on my way
by them i know that on my own i'll pass
beyond the things in life that lie astray
  i thought this all unto the looking glass

The Ripple Effect

So my words travel through time's dimension
Deriving from every depth of my thought
With all I had learned deep in my essence

Oh I shall ripple the life I had sought
