By the Moons Glow: A Romantic Love Poem

This is a romantic love poem that I wrote a while back. I have posted it alongside a picture of the moon that I took on a particularly beautiful night.

By The Moons Glow

(Romantic Love Poems by Injete Chesoni)

We found love’s flow
By the moon’s glow
On that special night
We shared untold delights

By the moon’s glow
Love put on a show
For two earthly souls
Wrapped in love’s burrow

Under that hallowed light
In the softly lit night
Two earthly sprites
Shared love’s delights

By the moon’s glow
We forgot about tomorrow
As we lost ourselves
In love’s magical flow

Wicked Thoughts

I wrote this poem a while back and did not post it since it falls into the category of one of my risque poems. I hope this seductive love poem inspires in the reader "Wicked Thoughts," of their own. I have chosen to post one of my favorite art pieces along with this poem. It is one of the first art pieces I did and unlike most of my current work which is on metal this nude art piece is oil pastel on paper.

WICKED THOUGHTS

(A Seductive Lovers Poem by Injete Chesoni)

If only you knew
The wicked thoughts
That I am having of you
Of limbs entangled
Yours and mine
Of lips locked in kisses
And bodies entwined
Of twisted sheets
Covered in sweat
Of moments so sweet
Unblemished by regrets
Of hours shared
In passion’s embrace
Of precious moments
Staring at your face
As you lie in my arms
Upon my chest
Satisfied after hours
in passion’s embrace
Then you loudly call my name
And I gently blush in shame
I smile secretly to myself
As I think of fantasies
Yet un-met
For now they are just my sweet escape
My getaway from a dreary day
“A penny for your thoughts,” you say
And I smile to myself
Perhaps another day.

 Love’s Flower

Short Love Poem by Injete

It started with a budding friendship

Between two lonely souls

A cautious relationship

of two former foes

The blossoming of love’s flower

covered in delicate thorns.

We nurtured and tended it

and it soon grew

Into a blossom

of love

sweet and true.

My precious flower

I am so blessed

that I found you.

IF I HAD KNOWN: LOVE'S MEMORIES

(Short Sad Love Poems by Injete Chesoni)

If I had known that one day you would be gone,

I would have savored every moment spent in your arms.

I would have treasured every second of time spent with you,

To remind me that once upon a time our love was true.

I would have frozen every moment when your eyes met mine,

I would have captured every caress, in the hourglass of time.

I would have stocked up on memories for that future day,

When you would be gone to shores far away.

But while we were together I was deceived,

That love was forever and not a passing breeze.

A Wedding Poem and Verse By Injete Chesoni
I am so blessed to have you
As my lifetime partner.
So blessed to have you
As my friend and lover.
To share this life and walk together,
Until the end and the hereafter.
Even then,
We will still be joined together,
For we are two souls intertwined forever.
Blessed to be together,
Until the end of time.

Healing Rain

A Love Break-up Poem and Sad Love Poem
By Injete Chesoni

I thought my tears would make you love me again,
I thought my tears would fall on the roots of our love
and nourish it like rain.
I thought my tears would pierce your heart,
and help us make a brand new start.

I thought my tears would make you feel my anguish and pain,
and draw you back into my arms again.
I thought my tears would flow with yours
and create for us a pool of love.
I thought my tears were heavenly showers
with magical healing powers.
A trickling sent from the heavens above,
That would fill our hearts with joy and love.

So I cried when you left me
To ease my pain,
I cried when you left me
To bring you back into my arms again,
I cried when you left me,
Because I thought that tears were healing rain.
But I found out that sometimes they are not,
They are just tears and searing pain.

I Know I Will Love Again:
A Love Break-up Poem by Injete Chesoni

When you left me,
My heart shattered into a million little pieces,
My life crumbled under your feet.
As you walked out that door,
You took my soul with you,
Onto that old cobbled street.

At first I could not accept it,
There was no way that you were gone.
I played this song over and over,
Tomorrow he will come back home.
And tomorrow turned into a million yesterdays,
As my life slowly wilted away,
I became a drooping flower,
Thirsting every day.

But still I could find no water,
For my source it was only one.
And it dried up forever for me,
when your love became undone.
I thought I would die without you,
And I slowly counted the days,
When I would meet my savior,
In a loveless haze.

But the days turned into years,
And still I was on this earth.
Nobody came to save me,
From my loveless hearth.

Then one day I finally realized,
That you were never coming back again,
And as long as I kept hoping for you,
My heart would be in pain.
A broken heart shattered in pieces,
Can never love again.

So I opened up my door,
And I stepped gingerly onto that old street,
Walking down that path to love,
So scary and yet oh so sweet.

Swept Away
(A Short Love Poem by Injete Chesoni)

One gaze, and her mind was in a haze.
Those eyes, they took her by surprise.
When hers met his.
She had no clue, if only she knew,
it was the beginning of the end.
She never would have let him inside
her heart or head.

Love on the Beach Poem
(I am Remembering)
A Romantic Love Poem by Injete Chesoni

I am remembering
Sunsets and blue skies
And your eyes
Gazing into mine
~~~~~~~
I am remembering
Gentle warm breezes
And sweet kisses
As your lips met mine
~~~~~~~
I am remembering
The sound of ocean waves
As you whispered sweet nothings
Into my ears
~~~~~~~
I am remembering
Pitch black nights and starry skies
And your soft sighs
As your thighs met mine
~~~~~~~
I am remembering
(sigh)
Love As it was
Sweet
Love on the beach

Lovers Voyage
(A Short Love Poem and Lovers Poem by Injete Chesoni)
~~~~~~~
The voyage started off calm and peaceful
And gently we drifted along
As we sailed further out
A storm started brewing
And rapidly we lost all control
~~~~~~~
Swept by the waves of passion
We were helpless in the storm
Two self-less bodies together
Making a new form
~~~~~~~
When the storm was over
We gently drifted apart
And then we came back together
Joined at the heart

Separation: A Sad Love Poem by Injete Chesoni

Separation: Figure Art Work by Injete Chesoni

Separation
(A Sad Love Poem by Injete Chesoni)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The things we do
to each other in the name of self-preservation
That lead to gulfs of separation
which cannot be sealed
Even by the glue of our love for each other.

`````````
We claim we are in love
But the things we do in the name of love
Make me wonder
Are we more in love with ourselves
Than we are with each other.

On The Eve of Change: A Marriage Poem By Injete Chesoni

On The Eve of Change
(A Marriage Poem and Life Change Poem by Injete Chesoni)
~~~~~~~
I sit here knowing, I am a step away
from changing my life forever.
I ask myself am I ready,
to leave all that I have known behind,
and forge into the future.
I ask am I ready,
to throw all caution to the wind,
and entwine my life so closely with that of another.
I begin to hesitate
and on the eve of change,
I want to hold time still for a moment.
I cannot go back,
but I am so afraid to go forward.
Yet, I know that time will not wait for me.
And on the eve of change I realize
I must move forward with time,
or time will leave me behind.
