There is a desire within me
that teases and taunts and
feeds the need of my mind,
replacing the you that cannot be.

There is a beauty within me
that is brought out by the way
your eyes would touch mine and
carry their blue to accompany my night.

There is an aching, daily,
puzzled by the need for words,
for that smile to touch my senses,
your nearness to chase away the old.

My thoughts will outlive my words,
will do the connecting, reaching
for the reality of you, wondering why
I anticipate what will never be.

"Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."
(Will Moss)

"what will never be. . . "

why do we think about that??  perhaps, we'll never know. . .

well done M. . .

hugs

Lyra, thanks for asking, but I had to cancel the cat scan, I can't afford to layout  another 1000 at the moment so instead I went to another Dr. who decided to do some tests amd bloodwork on me...won't know  until the 3rd what the outcome was for any of it...and what they may do next.

Many (((hugs))) for your kind words
M

Toerag, really haven't made your acquaintance although I read you and the others     but it's the house next door to me that is up for sale, not mine. Thank you
for stopping  by.

Sven, thanks ...well sometimes the truth is plain as day...but we don't wish to acknowledge it...and I am beginning to decifer which truths to believe or perhaps not....

(((hugs)))
M
