Love.

                               

Because of you, in gardens of blossoming
Flowers I ache from the perfumes of spring.
I have forgotten your face, I no longer
Remember your hands; how did your lips
Feel on mine?

Because of you, I love the white statues
Drowsing in the parks, the white statues that
Have neither voice nor sight.

I have forgotten your voice, your happy voice;
I have forgotten your eyes.

Like a flower to its perfume, I am bound to
My vague memory of you. I live with pain
That is like a wound; if you touch me, you will
Make to me an irreparable harm.

Your caresses enfold me, like climbing
Vines on melancholy walls.

I have forgotten your love, yet I seem to
Glimpse you in every window.

Because of you, the heady perfumes of
Summer pain me; because of you, I again
Seek out the signs that precipitate desires:
Shooting stars, falling objects

Hi ^^

I enjoyed the poem :) it is a nice flow of emotion of love :) sometimes "too approving" in my opinion .

one thing you should change would be the colour of the text green and blue make it hard to read ! well I highlighted it by dragging the "courser"(hope I wrote it good :P )over it ! it worked and I could read it

pls do continue posting :) very interesting and I find it calming too :D
