Staying True

Under the tide of the moon, in its glow

I watch you naked as gold shadows grow,

your womanly form begins to excite

and all my dreams are to have you tonight.

 

And as I watch you my breathing gets dim

I see your body so lithe and so slim,

as I consider the charms that you give

will be the lifeblood with which I can live.

 

So I pledge that forever we will be

together as true lovers you and me,

and when those others have fallen to chance

you and I will still enjoy the last dance.

 

For when love is true it cannot be lost,

whatever the price, whatever the cost.

Staying true . . . true love outside the bedroom assures each rare experience inside it.

Staying true throughout the years can be so rewarding. Reminds me of why I married in the first place. Your first couple of stanzas transported me in time. Beautifully written, your lines have rhythm and I always appreciate the use of rhyme when it is used well.

The beauty of love and the beauty of a woman naked, such alluring charms that make a man’s mind dance and fumble. You carried the write well with the End rhymes.
