LONGING

When I wanted you the most we would only share,

a glance, embrace or grin,

I remember moments when our arms would graze,

oh how I felt the electricity course through my veins,

distraction you were,

but a beautiful distraction I must admit,

countless times did I want to hold you,

like a child I wished to grab your hand and never let go.

You ignited in me an infatuation,

a longing,

a wanting

non-seizing need to see your silhouette,

I dreamed of moments with you,

us two, intertwined, lying somewhere lost to time,

your lips on mine, eyes shut … I'm diving deep,

into lust, into love, into passion,

leaving me in an inebriate state,

my thirst for you was insurmountable.

 One year passed, then two, then three
then over time I came to lust for you no more.

However now, my mind takes me back to that place,

where we roamed free and said 'no shackles on me'

you are a long lost love my dear,

Wish I never lost you to the binds of time.
