Drowning

For I know that I am drowning
It is a wondrous death
As I gaze upon your beauty
So soft and gentle, as you
Where the whirlpools of your eyes
Draw me in, ever deeper and deeper
But I have no fear
For I can see only you
It is not the stars in your eyes
Nor the ruby roses of your smile
Or the silky pallor of you skin
Nay it is none of these
As fine as they are
For I have been taken
And forever lost
Within the depth of your soul

Another grand poem they tell me drowning is a pleasant experience once you have got over the panick, so yes drowning in the soul lovely.

Hi Rob...drowning in the soul of another. I love your metaphor here...so beautifully done. So good to see you back in a very creative frame and punching out some absolute gems.

Hi, trurorob,
Thank you for allowing us to drown in your poetic writes. Sometimes there is simply no need for swimming.

Yes, I do agree, life is great, no matter what happens! Cause even death by drowning may be attractive, even wondrous in deep waters of the beloved's soul. Enjoyed this poem, thank you
