Thump. _I try to memorize it, but I'm too focused on the feeling of him in my arms. My arms are around his neck, his around my waist. I have one hand on the back of his head, exploring his velvety hair. My other hand traces...

This is how a performer feels onstage
When you find joy and comfort in the spotlight
When two minutes feels like two seconds
You don’t notice the crowd
You don’t hear them
You don’t see them
It’s just you
You and your passion
I put in hours of practice
Always perfecting my skills
I’m often asked why
Why I give up my life to practice and ...
Whether it’s sitting across the room watching him while he works or turning over and seeing him laying beside me, I love admiring My Love. While I sit there and watch, it feels as though time slows down. As though we are the only two people in the whole world. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I can never get enough of being around him or watching him do things. While I look I see...

Meaningless words put to the page
Still the knot in the pit of my stomach remains
You never check in on me these days
I still tell myself I love you anyway

Her eyes shines bright as the sun itself, the sun is wamr but her eyes are burning fire, they burn my soul, but it does not hurt me at all, even if it does I wouldn’t hide myself from...
I lie in bed,
In complete darkened dread.
My eyes cannot close,
Even when in a sleeping pose.

To hide her from coming;
Insomnia nips at me
Making sleep a no guarantee.
Time ticks
As she smiles and pricks
My very mind
With distaste of all kind.
How long the night feels
As I lie through these ordeals.
If only I could escape
Insomnia’s shadow....
Our first date,
Hand holding
Lips brushing
Never ending laughter
The sparkle in your eyes
Full of passion and dedication
Our love is frozen, never interrupted
Rings presented, vows shared
Children bared
Our love still frozen, yet our skin wrinkling and greying
Sharing a hospital room together
Hands holding
Lips brushing
Never ending laughter
The same passion and dedicat...

Write a blank verse poem on a topic that's important to you.
Blank verse poetry doesn't rhyme, but has a very strict structure which builds a melody through rhythm. (One way to create this is to structure each line with the same amount of syllables, and the same syllabic stresses, like you might if you were writing the verses of a song.)
