To be in love, with one who you wish you had...

~A Poem~

You look at me
And then you bite
Your lower lip
And look down
And somehow I know
With no way of knowing
Perhaps it is the light
That is illuminating
From your down ward glance
That you are still seeing my image
Burned into your retinas
Just as your countenance
Is permanently stamped
Into my minds eye for forever
Slowly you look up
As if to ensure that the image and
The man are the same
And your eyes smile
Your lovely lips smile
And my heart and soul smiles
You then reach up
And ever so gently
Run your fingers down my face
And I feel as if my soul
Has been brushed by an Angels wings
I draw you to me
And the aroma of you intoxicates me
I drink in your fragrance
And I gently kiss your mouth
Honey and hotness
Tender nips that grow to hungry mouthfuls
We part
We stare
And we feel the love
And the loss
Because what is felt
Is not what is supposed to be
What has happened
Wasn't supposed to occur
And the rightness of it
Is over shadowed by the weight
Of our self conscious wonderings...
We part
We still hold hands
And we both speak volumes
Without saying a single word
I turn and leave
At the door you call my name
I look back expectantly
And you say
Never mind
Be safe
I wish you the same
The door closes
And I lean on it long enough
To look over my shoulder and say
Under my breath
True, I am not suppose to but...
I love you
And you
Now sitting on your bed
Wondering why or what
Allowed the moment to pass
Say in the voice that is in your
Mind...
"I called you really
Not to say
Be safe
But really
To say
Be mine"...
Because I love you
That much...
Then with pen and paper
You begin to write your thoughts
And eventually those scattered thoughts
On tear stained paper...
Become a poem...
