LIKE LOVE'S PASSAGE

Folder: 
JOURNAL#2

we're not in love you and I

we're not really lovers

merely strangers

passers by

it's not really you I need when I cry in the night

yet its your clear eyes in my mind

I see in the dawn's blinding light

do you think of me when I'm not there

am I in your thoughts when you go off into space

and blankly stare

oh sweet, passionate, lust filled friend

bring this ache and misery to a fantastic end

find the key to unlock these chanins of all

consuming hunger

be these fellings as they may

no man could ever put asunder

you bring me to a level of shear

uncontrollable bliss

no woman could ever have lived fully

without feeling like this

do I burn in your mind and soul

do your thoughts turn to me

when they need a place to go

can you love another yet still want me

it hurts so deep when you talk of her in front

of me

is infatuation a key player in our little game

or is desperation a better name

tears cloud and blur my eyes

when I think of my beautiful blond haired

blue eyed boy

to have him with me now

wouold be a painful if not numbing joy

DEAR HEART you have me as labeled

your dear sweet head to my breast I have cradled

blithering cold tears wash away

this unrequited pain from my shackled heart

to end this poem now as is

would be indubitably smart........
