A tender kiss and touch she gives My emptiness is gone I lose myself within her eyes My heart is filled with song A tender kiss and touch she gives My emptiness is gone This angel with the golden hair This one, she makes me strong A tender kiss and touch she gives My emptiness is gone My path today, from this point on I'll never walk alone A tender kiss and touch she gives My emptiness is gone The passions that we share in life Unite and make us strong jc021401

the full repetition of half the poem is a bit much for me; one line out of four would have sat better, or (same, ish) two every eight... very sweet, though. I'm sure whomever it was for appreciated it. :)

Nice, but needs a progression or juxtaposition

This reminds me of Catullus. I liked it.

it almost seems as though you are using this as a mantra to convince yourself that what you two have will finally save you...
