As We Are

You linger on the tip of my tongue
the taste of words teaching me that
to season, would take away
the temptation, the attraction
that keeps you there...

I use to feel trapped,
my emotions spilling over
into words, secrets once kept
sometimes beyond understanding,
leaving me a puzzle, to perplex those
who thought they knew me.

With or without you, you will always
be in my present, the light
of my mornings, the shadows
of my nights, fading only into dreams
where I meander, blending to balance
what is mutual between us.

~M~

Beautiful poem.

I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait.

Still lingering, but not there,
understandable so.

Those shadows still sound very deep ...
   but so does your thoughts.

Your writing has such an ethereal quality...  a dreaminess much like a distant deja-vu.  I guess you tap into something familiar to many of us, and I thank you for sharing it.
