Quiet House - 1. Quiet House

Quiet House


Lights are out in this house,

Candles lit, shadows dancing on the walls.

Your eyes are darker in the dimness of the room.

Quiet falls, only breathing.


And you whisper in the dark,

How your arms are strong,

How safe they are,

And that there will be no harm.


I can smell you,

Your mix of soap and shaving cream.

I can feel your smile on my cheek.

And your hand finds mine.


Your devotion is in your kiss,

And love in your gentleness.

Passion in your fingertips,

And happiness in your laugh.


The quiet in the room, lends itself to whispers.

And as you dream,

My name is,

Your whisper in the dark.

Krista

Krista you show a soft and almost vulnerable side here. The images you create are sharp, vivid, and easily lead the reader from beginning to end.

I highly enjoy the softer side of Krista xD but really, it's a great poem that expresses strong feelings between two lovers.

Loved the way you used sensory images, this was beautiful and touching and romantic. I enjoyed it a great deal.

There is seduction in dark shadows dancing in candle light.

There is lust in the quiet whispers in your ear.

There is passion in your gentle touch.

There is yearning in your skin.

 

This is a sultry, wooing for the reader, a tantalising tease of pleasure. :P

Romance and allure written in black ink! ;)

Aww, thanks Layla. I was going for images. I wanted people to imagine themselves with the person they love in a dimly lit quiet peace and comfort with one another. :) Glad you saw it.

Aww. My Poetry is easy to read in general, but I like that the imagery was projected really well and that if flowed. I just need to stop writing poetry about Aaron, if he knew I showed everyone other than him, he might blush.. haha

Romantic, clear, and clever. I loved the ending line and how blatantly beautiful the emotions of the protagonist come out in the verses. Great work Krista!

Very romantic and yet somehow haunting. I enjoyed this very much :) Much more vulnerable than I would expect from you, in a good way :)

I believe the haunting part is how it reads, or I see where you're coming from with the comment anyway. Yeah yeah yeah, I have a soft spot. :P
