Impossible choice?

Folder: 
Soulmates II

The ache of a touch

wanted so much 

 

gently smouldering eyes pouring fourth compassion 

Within a complex passion.  

 

the smoothness of your ease 

a complacent belonging twisting back my faithless longing 

 

reason escapes me 

love pervades me 

 

the smokey haze of your soul around mine 

winding up around and through not sure which is me which is you

 

it's wanted so much

yet we never touch

 


and I can not decide why?

nightlight1220 brought me

nightlight1220 brought me here. For good reasons too. Very good write. The only thing is the title confuses me a little because is it really a choice?

Star crossed its a huge risk

Star crossed its a huge risk to be together she won't go there for some reason, many reasons, none of them good enough for him though. He won't leave his way of life or plans and experts her to still be a part of it even after many years. It will bring heart break to all else she loves, though sheis also confused about her feelings so she can not make the decision or rather she has made one but can't stop wanting a different thing, what's on offer would only be fleeting. Love is always a choice. Passion isn't. But she can't ultimately decide if she should give a physical piece of her. Yes/no yes/ no... It's really the why that is important here. The un answerable question begging for an anewer that ultimately is a slave to circumstances beyond our control. Thanks for reading and I hope this clears it up a little! :) SS

This is very inspirational

This is very inspirational for me, SSmoothie... thx!!

 

 

I don't know any other way to express this...at the time... lol

 

ache my sweet, ache for the human touch,

the sensations you long for, and dream of so much,

ache my love, ache, so that you may learn,

the power of a touch, and tenderness to learn,

ache my love ache to the depths of desperation,

so that love might transform all the fanatical infatuation,

let yourself curdle in writhing pain, inside to die,

cry, my love cry, and beg to ask "why?"

fight if you must, how this longing is controlling you,

fight if you have to, the real thing love's trying to show you,

oh, ache! my love---ACHE, til your blockages clear,

because real love will break through all those falacies and fears,

ACHE my love ACHE, til your tears all run dry,

and true love can teach others, all you've learned...

                           ...and why.

 

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
