Enchanting Hope: A Collection of Love Poems
GaLambos Á. István: Life’s Teasing
I trust that soon, I’ll see you again,
And if I do, you’ll be mine then.
The hope I hold shines for all to see,
You bring out the best in me.
In dreams, I drift and sit by your side,
In freedom’s arms, where love can’t hide.
I kiss you sweet, and here I stay,
My lips on yours, I melt away.
But reality shakes me awake,
And life with its tricks, its teasing play,
Turns my sweetest dream to ache—
Steals my fairy tale away.
GaLambos Á. István: Hope Fights with Reason
Hope fights reason, it’s a war within—
Tell me, which one will win?
To hell with reason, let hope rise!
My heart pounds wild, no disguise.
When you smile, I’m up in the air,
But, oh, what comes now, what snare?
Your gaze seeks someone new to hold,
And hell greets me, its flames so cold.
Your laugh lifts my day, a moment of grace,
A glance from you lights hope’s trace.
Though I want you, it’s plain to see,
Hope deceives me mercilessly.
Another’s love holds your heart,
Far from me and my silent cries.
Though my dreams, they fall apart,
This heart, again, must say goodbye.
GaLambos Á. István: Back in My Arms
You’re here once more, by my side,
In dreams, in life, you never hide.
Your laughter and scent burn deep in me,
My soul bound in sweet memory.
Whatever I do fades to dust,
When you’re not here, there’s no trust.
I take your words and hold them tight,
Freeing my heart into the night.
I don’t just dwell on sorrow’s song,
To night’s peace, that’s where I belong.
I see you still, my hope, my way,
And together, we greet the new day.
GaLambos Á. István: Until I Move Away
The mornings feel different, when someone waits,
Boundless joy, the love that creates.
To see you each day, my heart leaps, it’s true,
But I’m done waiting; I’ll move away from you.
The morning feels different when with you I wake,
A song of glory, a vow I can’t break.
To whisper your name brings me joy each day,
But I’m done waiting; I’ll move away.
The morning feels different, your laughter bright,
The hope I hold, still shines in its light.
To hear your voice brings comfort and cheer,
But I’ll stop waiting; I’ll disappear.
The morning feels different, for you’re no longer near,
Lonely heart in the night, fighting the fear.
Letting you go, it cuts to the bone,
Smile at me once, before I’m truly gone.
