A beautiful depiction of loneliness and longing for a loved one whose far away. Had wonderful rhythm and rhyme to it with a quaint image portraying a lady in waiting. 'You're with me every night when e're the ocean sighs' truly captures that heart aching emotion.

Captivating from the start. A sweet love poem and loss of without being to melodramatic. Sincerely portrays the inner workings of the heart.

This is a lovely romance/love poem. Your meter is wonderful (something I don't do) and your rhymes are great. Sonnet form is it?

    Hi Teresa, thank you for reading and for your lovely review. No not a Sonnet. Not sure it's any particular form. Just came out this way. Nancy

I no longer hide my loneliness and it is that very loneliness that makes you muse of connection, your yearning bringing the One you love into all of nature, a deep connection.

You're with me every night when e're the ocean sighs.
But soon you must return, for dreams cannot replace
your love for which I yearn, your tender, warm embrace.

A beautiful love song Nancy. So sweet and demure. Your verses are wonderful and the flow is awesome.
