This is a poem written earlier and one of my favorites. SKR
The nights are long and you search the streets Never the equal of you to meet A little is here and a little is there Not quite enough to completely compare The ego of one with the Id of another A desire to suck in, entrap and to smother For dreams that escape with a victim suspect In a space of lost time where senses detect A smile that's inviting, a sameness of heart A face with my spirit, a shadow and sparks Eyes that hold images locking with same Passing in darkness he whispers my name Scars with soft tissues embedded in souls A heart reaching out to break your mold Faces are masked and asking to dance With a night showing promise Passions with chance As long as I'm walking Each step on a stone Streets full of people In pairs or alone Showing their love or blending in grays When the sun hits the shadows Then I've seen better days Challenge is an issue for each fated step Becomes progress in finding the Id with my depth For lust is one thing that passion can't hide And if wishes were horses more fools would ride.

state of reflections your right {{smiles}}}
"Showing their love or blending in grays
When the sun hits the shadows
Then I've seen better days
Challenge is an issue for each fated step
Becomes progress in finding the Id with my depth
For lust is one thing that passion can't hide
And if wishes were horses more fools would ride."
Yes they would.
~Peace
Take care with the new adventure.

Susan...this is one of MY favorites, too!
The thought content, meter, and meaning are marvelous!!!
Perhaps "..Quiet Storm" will help rekindle old flames buried and long forgotten or express the love so deeply locked inside of your soul longing to be released.
Regardless of where you may be found in love this beautiful masterpiece can be
