An Angel's Love

Poem By: Alice Oiseau
Poetry


He is an angel. Secretly together by night because of a love that is forbidden.

Note: Sometimes I take a shot at Shakespearean language, just because it's beautiful and I wish I could speak it today. So... it may come out a little rough. I tried it in this poem. Hope you like it. View table of contents...

An Angel's Love

Starlight has never incandesced brighter than in thine eyes,

Dazzle me and leave me breathless,

Next to me is where you lie,

Blessed I am to have thee,

*

A soul once lost and forsaken,

But found light when thee caressed that delicate heart of mine,

Thine handprint on thy heart till the end of time,

*

Dreams tied in crimson ribbons of bliss,

True love's kiss,

Oh sweetest angel, cradle me in thine arms,

Let us escape from reality's harms,

*

Dance with me beneath heaven's twilight,

Protected by thee with all thine might,

Snow white wings,

Together we will fade into galaxies afar,

You, my angel and I, your star,

*

Forever yours till death do us part,

Till the end of time, you're locked in thy heart,

Only you hold the key,

One day these shackles that hold me back will shatter

And I will be free,

*

For right now we cannot be,

Cursed forbidden love,

I shall await on soft brown earth for my angel from above,

Now forced to tear from our warm embrace,

But thee will return and hold me again,

Sweep me off my feet,

*

Beautiful whisperer, I love you,

Oh beloved angel, caress thy lips & kiss me when the stars go blue.

awww thank you!! ha and hon, you're just as magnificent. can't wait till you write more in your lovely stories. ^^

I am certain that many on here have mentioned this, but you truly do have a remarkable talent that I certainly hope you will not allow to go to waste. As far as the "Shakespearean" language, I think that you might have pushed a little too hard with the personal pronouns (thee and thy, etc.) but not enough to detract from the poem

Dreams tied in crimson ribbons of bliss,
True love's kiss,
Oh sweetest angel, cradle me in thine arms,
Let us escape from reality's harms

I have to agree with clslater about the thee and thine part, but I still liked this poem alot

thanks funnybunny!!!

This is so beautiful. I tend to relate poems I read to a song that I know. And this poem reminds me of Into the Night, one of my favorite songs! It's so romantic and romantic like. Sorry, I'm having a hard time explain this. I also like to put colors to poems or stories. This poem is off white, pale almost silver gold and an icy sea blue! And that's a good thing, some of my favorite colors to describe a poem.

This comment might be a tad confusing but these are the just the things that came into my mind when I read it. If you're curious, your Eternal Trilogy's colors are a sand color and forest green ^.^ yup. That's about it!

omg! thats amazing!! like what you do, put colors to a poem!! you have no idea how happy i am to hear you say that. i understand exactly what you mean by the colors tho. i have a friend who does that with people's singing voices. off white, pale almost silver gold and an icy sea blue.. gah! thats beautiful! thank you so much hugs and kisses! i love your comments so much! i think this comment has seriously made my day!

Hugs and Kisses has an interesting way of looking at it, but its a good way to express how we see a poem. I'm going to give it a try; I imagined the colour to be a yellow white with tinges of a passionate red to express the more intimate parts. Beautiful!!!

I have to agree with Punishment, my favourite lines were:
"Together we will fade into galaxies afar,
You, my angel and I, your star,"

You are doing great with your poems!!! Thanks for the invite, feel free to ask whenever you feel i will like something ^^

I think this is your best work ever in the history of everness. This was so awesome! This like #1! For just trying out Shakespearean language it was so wonderful! And I'm an obsessed with Shakespeare, so it was awesome! The words to describe, and the imagery...oh the imagery was so beautiful! And I could picture the whole story, the whole thing in my mind. It was very very lovely:D

aw thank you! ^^

So beautiful, alice (i beleive they call you birdy?)....you have such an insane amount of talent! Just one place where you should've used 'thou' instead of 'thee'...(fourth line from the end)..but i only picked it up because i'm such a shakespeare junkie...hehe. Lovely work, regardless.

Much love
Ash

Author Comment:

ahh thank you ash! haha well i'm glad there are shakespeare fanatics on here like you ^^
yes, they call my birdy/birdie or alice. either/or. both are fine :)
thanks hon!

Hello,
very very nice. It was so romantic and wistful you've incorporated elements of longing and despair so subtely in this piece, like a true master. bravo!
just one thing i would like to point out, why not make the stanza's more or less the same length that is 4 lines, or if not maybe you could make it 4 3 4 3 and so on. This way i think the pace and rhythym of this piece will improve further, it will flow more fluently and naturally. Plus i think poems that evoke the feel of old world poetry like urs do better with an exact symmetry.

Posted: Jun 12, 2008

Author Comment:

ha, yeah a good poet would focus on symmetry. i'm not one to focus on it. i understand it would have a stronger impact, but its simply not my style. i've tried symmetry before and its just... i find it takes away the emotion. i get so caught up in having the perfect amount of lines in each stanza that i lose the emotion.

thanks! glad you liked it ^^

did you just said kiss? lips? hmmm... ahah! sweet!
want some chocolates?

Posted: Jun 22, 2008

Author Comment:

lol i'd love some chocolates ^^ milk or dark chocolate please and thank you XD lol

Amazing! You have got a great gift for writing. Keep it up!
