Poet Lady Katz: new forum reply to WHISPER

New reply from Susan Katz

<p>Thank you so much for sharing your poem with me and for consideration as Featured Poem of the Week.  I loved this line in particular "I watch my reflection in your ocean eyes" – beautiful and meaningful imagery – and, you have many moments in the poem that rise to that level.  I wish you a lovely and creative day, Susan</p>

<p style="padding-left: 40px;">"You're beautiful"</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">I say as the moonlight softly caresses</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">Your face</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">As your cheekbones widen slowly </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">And a soft smile appears on your lips. </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">I feel my heart break and heal synchronously</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">The world around me hushes down</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">And it's just you in my sight</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">The floor beneath me feels as if it's spinning </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">And my head matching it with all its might. </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">"You're mine"</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">I whisper softly, </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">You crouch down a little</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">And whisper back against my lips</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">"And I always will be"</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">I watch my reflection in your ocean eyes</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">Watching myself drown with every second you exist by my side. </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">Our fingers intertwined together</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">I know we both are dying</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">As our heartbeats once again synch with each other. </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">I blink once, I blink twice</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">And watch as your hue fades away</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px; text-align: left;">In the wind</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">Just like every night. </p>
