Shifting Love

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic20 Comments

Our story began as friends
sharing goals for our futures
talking, listening and laughing
like brothers and sisters

Our time spent together
is priceless beyond words
moments we’ve cherished
letting down our guards

Then a revelation came
after seeing him last night
I saw the way he looked at me
and my heart took flight

Without any fair warning
something changed deep inside
I saw him in every tomorrow
until the end of time

Never do I want
our friendship to sever
Never have I felt
so much pressure

My thoughts are confused
My body, perplexed
What shall I do?
What happens next?

One and Only

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic50 Comments

Her heart sings when he says her name
The tiniest things ignite their flame
A simple gesture he does is grand
The simplicity of taking her hand
He makes her smile when he holds the door
Old fashioned and thoughtful, which she adores
Her breath catches when he holds her close
Sensations slide to the tips of her toes
When she wakes in the morn and hears him breathe
It’s that very moment she truly believes

A Promise Everlasting

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic50 Comments

In your eyes
I’m swept away
Melodies played
as the trees swayed
Clouds parted
to light our way
and I realize
my skies
will never again turn gray

Then you stand near me
your arms open wide
You let me in your heart
and the Heavens sighed
You made me a part of
your everyday life
as your lover, your friend,
Your beloved wife

Forever Love

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Acrostic Poems, Romantic67 Comments

Faint is how you make me feel and not
Only when our lips connect, but when I
Remember our first embrace and how my
Emotions twirled inside of me, dizzy and
Voiceless, I was and those moments still exist
Even though decades have come and gone
Reflections of those first days are rainbows
Learning the true meaning of bliss, an
Out of the ordinary feeling, knowing you are my
Valentine, lover and friend for the rest of our life together and for
Eternity~

When I look…

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic63 Comments

In your eyes
I see star speckled
night skies
azure seas and
calm ocean waves
snowy trees
and soft snowflakes
grand, green meadows
dotted with
wildflowers
I could
linger for hours
In your eyes
I see a
rainbow palette
of vivid colors
and the moonlight glow
makes me thankful
You’re my beau
There’s more
I can tell you today
but I’d rather get lost
and drift away

Love’s Decree

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic27 Comments

Your kindness
glows upon my world
pulling me in
forever surreal
When you give your love
my foundation shifts
like a gentle quake
I tumble in
Tenderly
You stir my soul
as a whirlwind
out of control
With you
I travel
the road to bliss
My heart’s content
A love so real

Distant Hearts

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic19 Comments

Though many miles lie between
You’re as close to me as my breath
Feeling your warmth upon my face
Your touch I won’t forget
Longing days turn into ebony
Thoughts of you consume my mind
With open arms, I step inside
No truer love I’ll ever find
