Captivating conscientious
Arms in waiting, dear and precious
Scintillating nights of passion
Giving fully, none to ration
Heated whispers, longing glances
Giving way to loving dances.
-E.Duman (00)
 

I love you when you're here
And when you're far away
I love you when I think of you
Every moment, every day.
 
I love you when we're close
And when we're far apart
I love you when I dream of you
Each one precious in my heart.
-E.Duman 9/10/01
To Jason with Love

You Made Me
 
You made me remember the past
  The years that we shared
  The depth that I cared
The friendship that always would last.
 
You made me remember your face
  The sweetness you showerd
  The kindness that flowed
The way that you made my heart race.
 
You made me remember your wit
  The laughter you gave
  The wisdom we craved
The punchlines you always could hit.
 
You made me remember regret
  The moments we missed
  The times that I wished
The years that we could have had yet.

Goodnight
Goodnight my darling
Goodnight my love
                 Tonight take your mind                 
To the stars above.
Set you heart, set your soul
To my tender loves glow
Take your mind, fly away
To a place that we know.
A place that we're together
Two hearts tied forever.
Four arms holding tight
Our love thru the night.
Then set your body rest
While within your covers nest;
Then dream the night away
'Till I'm with you come the day.
ESizemore, 7Aug01
 
 
 
A Dance  
 
Hide me deep within your soul
Hold me tight, don't let me go.
Keep me safe within your arms
Emboldened by your drugging charms.
Laugh with me throughout the night
Pray with me at dawns first light.
Walk beside me in the rain
Chase away the aching pain.
Come to me within the night
On wings of love we'll take to flight.
Be the lover in my dreams
Acting out my shadow scenes.
Be the man who cracks the wall
Tear it down and conquer all.
Be my sun and be my moon
Dance with me to loves sweet tune.

A lady so fair
With molten red hair
Whispers of love to her man
She says "I love thee
It's true, can't you see?
I'll show you however I can."
A man with his mate
Listens to fate
And vows everlasting love
He says 'here with thee
Forever I'll be
And then up in Heaven above."
A couple, a pair
Who promise to care
Forever as long as they are
Each saying "I do"
Prepare to go through
The shower of rice to their car
The start of their life
Will be such a strife
They'll struggle and fight for their gain
But still through it all
They answer loves call
To make it through all of the pain
Three kids they will raise
With laughter and praise
And loving and strictness as well
and when they're all done
With laughter and fun
Their love you'll be able to tell
Two lovers so fair
With deep seeded care
Are into their golden years
They relish their past
The future's not vast
They'll face it without any fears
-E.Duman 7/9/99
 

To Jason
Tell me what your heart tells you
Say you love me, love me true
Tell me tales of ever after
Tell me that you love my laughter
Write me poems of love forever
Say that we'll not part-no never!
Tell me that you need me so
And that you'll never let me go
Do these things and I'll tell you
That I love you, love you true
I'll say I'll never say goodbye
And I'll be with you 'till we die
I'll tell you tales of love that's pure
And write you poems throughout the year
I'll hold you tight within my heart
And tell you that we'll never part
You love me and I'll love you
We'll love each other strong and true.
-E.Duman 09Aug01
 

          Each
Each life holds a spark
A candle glowing in the dark
Each love leaves a mark
An imprint upon our heart

Each trial brings tears
The pain that comes with fears
Each victory brings cheers
To keep us going through the years

Each trail we hike
Brings experience to our life
Each time we face strife
It makes us stronger inside

Each year that passes by
Gives us wisdom and strength to try
Each sad goodbye
Leaves wings on which to fly

E. Sizemore, 5/2007

A Lovers song
Come live with me and be my love
I'll take you to the stars above.
We'll catch a flight of fantasy
And live in perfect ecstasy.
 
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
With your sweet love my heart will shine.
Together we will face the storm
Enclosed in loving arms so warm.
 
We'll stare down disaproving eyes
And just ignore those binding ties.
When all the world says we're wrong,
We'll laugh and continue our song.
           -E. Duman 7/1/99
 
 
Tremulous and nervous
She walks into his room
Just a little bit uncertain
Maybe it's too soon...
Feminine and flustered
She knows not what to say
Even though she's scared
They've been waiting for this day.
Her footsteps are unmeasured
Pausing every few
Anticipation rising
Her cheeks a darkened hue.
She sees he lies there waiting
His eyes upon her face
A look awakes the butterflies
Around inside they chase.
A breathless gasp escapes her
And catches all the rest
She knows that she is ready
But she's never known the test.
A faltered step, she pauses
She stops, her body still
Deep down inside she's quaking
She's feeling fear and thrill.
He watches every movement
He knows she's fighting fear
He moves to stand beside
And draws his loving near.
His arms absorb her shaking
He calms her with a kiss
Loving eyes meet loving eyes
She's lost herself in bliss.
          -E. Duman 02Mar01

Thunder or Lightening
I start to fall
Then catch myself
Can this be all?
There's more I've felt
I see his smile
It melts my soul
But all the while
There's more I know
I want it all
But need it not
But can I fall
And still be caught?
Within his arms
I feel content
No trials or troubles
On me can vent
But when I'm still
And throughtful too
A doubtful quill
Pricks me anew
It makes me wonder
Makes me think
Could this be thunder
Or lightening blink?
-E.Duman 07/Dec/00
 

Loving you
Loving long into the night
Loving come the morning light
Loving fast and loving slow
Loving high and loving low
Loving rough and loving sweet
Loving light and loving deep
Loving hugs and loving kiss
Loving joys and loving bliss
Loving long with all our hearts
Loving strong, despite the darts
Loving you has made my year
And loving you will keep me near
Loving you has brought me more
Than loving you prepared me fo
Loving you is in my blood
I'm drowing in a loving flood
Loving you is what I do
And loving that you love me too.
-E.Duman 12/14/01
 

A man of my heart
A man of my soul
A man of my dreams
A man well I know
 
A love of my life
A love strong and true
A love like no other
A love fresh and new
 
A touch of an angel
A touch of a dove
A touch like a feather
A touch from my love.
-E.Duman (01)
for Jason

An Unaffair
 
Dark eyes holding mine
Trapped by their penetrating stare
Accute honesty pervades.
Barely a touch
Fingers running down my arm
Sends shivers throughout me.
Touches in the dark
Strong arms encircle my body
We need no eyes to see.
Words become unnecessary
Carnal knowledge longing to be shared
Spoken in the language of desire.
Passion never planned
Bodies aching to be united
We're found to be playing with fire.
Regret pervades the air
This longing we know can never be
Oure eyes and hearts know the plan.
Even while you hold me
My body trapped in this powerful desire
Our eyes fall on a single golden band.
