A dark haired raven flies amongst my dreams,
Her memory bombards my every sense.
I think of her and thoughts burst at their seams.
Yet all at once she’s at some distant fence.

Emotions swell just like a raging sea.
Experience, it calls me to forget.
These thoughts torment, tornadoes chasing me.
Weighed down by a heavy cast, already set.

I realise than in all ways she’s out of reach,
Does this deter me? NO, I want her more.
These thoughts they drain, a giant recurring leech,
Fed only by her kiss that I long for.

I understand that in a different time or place it might have been,
I grope in fear at chance that I have missed.
Yet deep inside the monster rages green,
I clutch and grasp at our forbidden kiss.

In short, confusion rampant runs and I still fret,
As these thoughts linger, I know I must relent,
Her face, her eyes, her smile I can’t forget.
For in all truth I know she’s heaven sent.
