“I wrote you a letter once,
borrowing words from a dream,
filling the gaps with my warm breath,
while I pondered over perfect synonyms
to describe feelings you never felt.
Those words have long smudged.
Dark, cold and unyielding.
Today, I write again,
with a piece of heart,
carving gentle streets of Paris,
that we once wished to visit.
Engraving craters of the moon,
underneath which,
a promise was made.”

Beautiful lines
Lovely!
I love reading sweet romantic poems and you’ve done a great job here! 🙂
A love poem for the eternal romantics. The words flow like a gently cruising river.
Love the flow of emotions in your poem and the sense of longing.
“filled the gaps with my warm breath” – oh my Raj this is pure joy to read. The entire poem is gorgeous and conveys so much brilliantly. Your verse writing skills are simply super!!
Loved it ❤️

Love how smoothly your words flow, and how you convey so much, in such few words. 👍
I wish poetry would come to me so easily
Time fails to heal some events that have cast deep wounds on heart… but the eyes of the poet can see everything under the Sun!
Good read.
