romanticizing the night

Posted by Robert Anderson On Thursday, June 2, 2011 1 comments

oh yore, to breathlessness i'll sleep
then pray i bring to light
for one more chance to never weep
my acquainting with the night
so all my thoughts of her are bred
and soon embracing me
is all the musing love i bled
for her soul endlessly
i've lived, i've loved, i've died, i've died
a thousand times before
where all the lifeblood dreams would guide
had taught me to be more
while beauty's still a thing to keep
i've known the truth of life
and so to breathlessness i'll sleep
to hush my
moonlit strife

I will beseech you

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.

A Romantic Notion

I drown my tendency to die
So intimate tonight
To touch her lips imbued in tears
To gain a brand new sight

The glee aroused within my heart
Has painted all my thoughts
To glow with such vitality
For everything she sought

The stars persuade our destiny
While life embraces through
The fortune of a new era
Igniting what is true

I dote upon her eloquence
Now feeling I belong
No matter what, I love her now
I've loved her all along

a sympathetic view

come dance, yes dance with my thoughts, dear
and let this fortune stay
soon I know it will all be clear
when beneath the moon we sway

guided by a trail of stars
into the sweet embrace
of what will soon unveil our scars
and heal them with no trace

 then when it ends with one last kiss
I pray that once again
we meet through what defines such bliss
and nevermore refrain

I swear I am in love with you
so deep and true and mad
with all that you have shown as true
I do not feel as sad

come squeeze on the thorns and confess while you bleed
let me mourn for you at the alter of death
time is no acquaintance, you're still my reason to breathe
beyond the veil of ever after, the memory you left
lingers through the nothingness and all that we'll find
when our souls reach out to find their resting place
  may carry by the winds of a beauty divine
every thought we'd evoke while our broken dreams lay
with all of eternity for each time that we vowed
by all that we yearned, the truth and the dare
the prayers that i cry out won't let my heart drown
until we consist of what heaven declared

Dreams

In what dreams do you dream to capture me love
From where does it give your sweet heart to see true
Oh, when is it that you need me the most
Could it be possible that you may never see through

Your days supposing I were no longer there
Giving you my heart in the sweetest lullaby
As I watch you asleep within every ripple
Of what dreams I wonder you do dream tonight

And when is it love that we may fall so deep
Within and afar wherever you go
Watching you smile to every whisper I cry
Longing you see how I do love you so

Oh me, I am the one who fell for your face
So silent tonight in the way you that you breathe
Like a fool I can't help but to kiss your sweet lips
Goodnight until I fall asleep as you dream


The Letter

Photobucket
T’was a love told on a single page
By a man named Seth to his Marguerite
That would help to escape her life one day
And the hand of he who had made her weep

He wrote of how they 'd journey toward
A happiness with no burdens; no lies
Bewildered not of what he had thought
Though soon his sweet Marguerite would die

For beyond the grasp it was of he
Who’d not understood that a love so fair
Could touch the heart of his wife to be
And woo her soul with a romantic flair

So wedded they’d be upon a day
That’d ultimately mark with it a tone
That fate does sound when an angel strays
From whom she was meant to be with - alone

She gave herself so unwillingly
To her fiancé right up on that aisle
And when they married he had plans to see
That she shall rightfully bear his child

To a certainty Marguerite had wept
On the honeymoon of this loveless lie
And made this choice before she leapt
From her own untimely breathless cry

Oh, when her Seth had espied the news
He vowed that eternity will never sweep
His soul away from the soul of his
Belov
éd angel, his heart, his Marguerite

Oh, Merest Fate

Oh merest fate, shimmering night of my own 
soul, to beset forth the sweetness that lies, 
humbly I beg to the burdens I've known,
To return what it is I lack in your eyes
 
Soughing my thoughts here, to hear your heart 
unveiling what quietness that does draw 
within, to expose what love should impart 
across the distance that remains 'cause I saw 
 
Life, before it was this life you defined 
as your own, to give not a moment to chance 
Afar in what dreams you bore there behind, 
beauty and chaos and by such romance
 
Oh merest fate, shimmering night of my own 
soul, to beset forth the sweetness that lies 
Humbly I beg to the burdens I've known, 
to return what it is I lack in your eyes
 

Beauty's Cause

Photobucket
oh, with these mere delights of beauty's cause
which by your weary heart are seldom seen
i'll veil the moon, the sun and nature's laws
to have you to myself my lovely queen
so nothing but the stars and space and time
will then enchant your soul to bring anew
the music of our fate: sweet heaven's chime
and grant the darkness in your mind adieu
but such things i cannot do on my own
i'll need your breath and spirit to create
that perfect place: a place where kisses blown
can break through all the chaos; i'll await
until we meet within our dreams again
please keep these thoughts to ease your deepest pain

A Poet's Tale

"These heavens drown me within your tangle
Of webbed mercy I do adore
Not I, no never had seemed embraced
By the divine language which angels pour"

~Excerpt from the poem "Unconcealed"
~
O once as seemingly a poet whose soul
Wept solely across the distance of yonder
Too unfair, unjust, his lifetime un-whole
Longed for one whose fairness was fonder
Than those who'd whisper of nothing with grace
To echo his words and guide through with heart
The bearing of life; such life there would lace
With nothing of awe to paint out in part
Over feelings as low as the lowest of cost
With things for which he'd always adore
This man whose worth has always been lost
Gave nothing to every thought that he bore
One day a maiden as fair as a queen
Took way across his path where he found
To his astonishment the one who he'd seen
Within the idea of the dreams that he bound
Unto his desire on the softest of nights
What soothing expression he saw in her eyes
And with this moment he found in new heights
An end to every ounce of his cries
So quite thereafter in dwelling he took
His quill to engrave with ink into ode
A gesture of love in his poetry book
To claim it was she that heaven bestowed
A surge of worldly affection through naught
Which flowed through him in every mere aim
To win this creature who captured his thought
His heart, his soul which now burn as flame
What mad enrichment it was when they met
So righteous, so pure; O this lies in fate
Life grants the poet no moment to fret
When all with love and feeling create
Such wonder in splendor, what deepened mystique
She impressed and laid upon him so fair
Granting angels a voice for she would bespeak
Of how the gesture he made was so rare
For she'd once known a pain that revealed
To her a loneliness which caused her to weep
So here the poet who remarkably sealed
In the poem a love she'd tenderly keep
Would not give chance to any who dared
To cross her path with intention of harm
For he would die if ever she flared
and ceased to where no beauty would charm
Their years and years of undying in love
Set no limit to wherever they've gone
This poet, his queen for always thereof
A passion that mirrors the heavenly dawn

Beauty and Her Song

Behold! For such light shines deep within
Emotionally; the shades of their love so fair
Anchored to the blanket of stars that do cover
Unity within the moments they've shared
Time of a lifetime that had beautifully bloomed
Yesterday's love they unfurled one sweet winter


And by the envious height of the moon
No flame had held to the passion they rendered
Depths of his righteousness she consumed

Heated so lovely in all ecstasy

Even in the garden he laid out for her
Roses had grew by the painted sunbeams

So in song she would soothe the love she adored
Oh when it was their time of romance
Not even death could cease them to soar
Greatly they've taken their fate but for chance

The Primrose Veil

Photobucket
Oh love, I bequeath to you on this night
So undyingly; lest my breath does cease
The very depth of my soul to delight
What fair elegance you shy beneath

That veil of primrose so knowingly soft
How I long to touch what heaven bestowed
By angel's grace; though no sweetness aloft
Can compare to how you faithfully hold

What warmth in my heart your eyes had intrigued
By-and-by; and by these words I confess
Oh love, I swear I'll unveil your mystique
Long before I everlastingly rest


Oh, Sovereign Night

Oh, sovereign night, peace be with you
I've walked through fates and ash
When for a time within my tale
your love for me did splash
Within the depth of my old soul
but longing here to die
Became my dreams within my life
these tender tears I cry
For joy, oh joy, which I've not known
when peace did fade away
Please walk with me in deepest need
oh, night until the day
I will not drift from hope if you
do grant to me again
The fairest wonderment in tone
of breath not gone in vain
Oh, sovereign night, am I to you
but a mortal who cannot
Touch your face behind the glow
of the beauty I had sought

While yearning more is my heart when
I bask within the light
Beneath the moon where I shall dance
with you, oh sovereign night
