The road to love

by Oceansoul   Feb 26, 2007


Most lines are about 8 syllables, altough some are more, the third from last syllable from the 4th line of each stanza rhymes with the stanza's last syllable,

Through this door I went
to leave behind the undesirable
depths. of my mind, to leave behind all
that ever made me sad, to walk
towards that what I never had.

Dark clouds I will leave behind when
I walk through this golden portal
of unseen things, looking behind
me I can see the rain falling
down on feelings that''ll never remain.

At the threshold of this new place
I am standing still, with the door
closing slowly behind me and
so forever parting me from
the thoughts that seemed never ending.

One little step I dare to take to
let myself walk into this--this
garden of eden it seems -when
I put on my brave shoes and step
into this place of heavenly virtues.

Little purple violets and bright
red roses that shine their beauty and
scents into this ethereal
place, where all that I find and see
is beauty of an unknown kind.

In this place ,the air that surrounds
is filled with fragrances I
never met before , scents that I
am almost able to see, scents that
now thrill and fully fulfill me.

Always further behind me are
the places I have left behind
so far in the distance by now
-no feeling of sadness there is
in me that I need to repress.

This road glides its way through fields of
sunflowers and passionflowers,
oranges and lemons, lily's and
pansy's, shining in full pride, along
this road that ever seems to glide.

The center I have reached, within
it is beauty that plays second
fiddle to none, in here a princess
like girl lies vast asleep, in my
heart, for no one love went so deep.

As a diamond surrounded by
love-created flowers, in scents
so sweet that make me dream away
with hair as silk and gold, there she
lies, on a bed of marigold.

So gentle, soft, tender and sweet, this
bright shining star with an aura
that is finer and clearer than
any sunbeam can ever be, the most
beautiful thing I will ever see.

In this ethereal place I
wish to stay, to touch her, to kiss
her awake, in this place of dreams
and hopes, of affection and love
with you love will be perfection.

    This was a marvel to the senses! The smells, the sights, the wonderment at all new things bright and carefree, leaving behind all thats dark and supressed. Good work.
