Elixir The nearness of your opiates scent Infused addictions sweet melancholy, My fortress'd heart entombed in loves lament Besieged by obsessions fate and folly, You fill my veins, I am the air you breathe We are the vessel for our deep desire To you my life, my mortal soul bequeath No quenching for our eternal fire. I dreamed a nightmare draught of life alone A life where you and I do not exist Separate lives lived in different worlds Never to hold you close or feel your kiss, In waking listened to my aching soul Discover, without you I am not whole. Olias. |

Fantastic, brilliant poem, very full of long words, which is cool, I had to read it a few times to get the whole gist of it, once I had, I instantly could associate with what your saying, many thanks .
