BEAUTIFUL ENIGMA

Folder: 
JOURNAL #35

do we ache for illusions

sometimes

I think we must

I ache for your presence

the idea you have built up in me

of what you must be like

how will it feel to touch your

closed eye lids with my bare lips

how soft will your hair feel

I shiver at the thought of just your breath

on my skin

being in your presence is almost enough

but my want to touch you that can not be denied

it is a pull in my very soul as old as time

do you have it as bad as me

I am helpless in my ponder

your hands I can not even imagine

though secretly I do so creatively try

you are a 'Beautiful Enigma' to me

and I am besotted  by the mere outline of you

my heart cracks a little bit more at the mere

idea of alas seeing you walking towards me

no longer thousands of physical miles away

but standing before me

in my very own breathing space

laying eyes upon me

that I feared would never

see such day

but always hoped

dreamed

and prayed

I just wanted you to be

aware of these very things.................

Author's Notes/Comments: 

an off again on again poetic dilemma of mine that missing someone I have yet to meet and or know. Too often my deep inner thoughts come back to him. Sometimes, I wonder if he feels some woman out there in the great distance of the world longing for him. Silly I guess to think such things but this poem will remain here for him ( I hope) to one day discover.
