Love Poetry: Our Sea of Love

by Rachel Opperman
(North Richland Hills, Texas)

'I am floating now out into the real, the deep, a sea.
Oh the bliss, and I think about how it all came to be!

It was all a sea of many faces none quiet so enchanting,
until I spotted a face causing my poor heart to sing!

That moment I saw you I knew where I belonged on earth.
It was the place I was destined for even at birth!

Our eyes met, and we began that moment to travel together,
I leaned against you and felt the softness of the leather.

I knew there would never be another, no one like you,
We held tight as our hearts raced and love's wind blew.

Our lips met in a kiss that has never stopped, not once,
We shared lots of times, flowers and many times lunches.

Now, in a sea of voices I know the one I long to hear,
Its the one that I can still feel breathing into my ear!

Its been some time ago Its true I know for sure,
But the voice, the face, slays me,there is no cure.

I love the sensation love brings to my spirit and heart,
Each time I feel love I know its all been a work of art.

Don't wake me, if a dream, don't recue me if I turn blue,
If I lost my life, I would keep on floating on its true!'
