Clawing to the beginning of fallen lives,
A breath.
Revived.
Bitterness tastes of a lover’s bride,
She is caged.
Breathing.
Echoing promises,
Slamming words into mantras,
One day.
One more time.
Tomorrow whispers a peaceful mind,
Tears frozen.
The heart is alive.
Please, may she sing for me,
Just one more night,
Her voice vibrates.
Whispering silence.
Lips quirking into a divinity of luminosity,
Moonlight kisses.
Her kiss of promises.
I sink into the glow of falling embers,
Every lantern burns.
Every shadow grows.
Love lulls me into dreamless wonder,
Kisses of fire.
Poetry written underwater.
About the Creator
A. Raphael
Poetry is my first love, and writing words onto paper is my therapy. Maybe my submissions will make you feel something, too.
If you find something in my words, then it is my pleasure.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
