Gossamer Gauze


he is an ache
within me
that cannot
be remedied by writing
a gauze of feelings
that cannot be denied
that is warm
to a chilling degree
thin silver web
meshing my today
to tomorrow
I am wrapped in
this gossamer gauze
of his being
it free flows
in my very air
bellowing like fog
in every step I take
surrounding and soothing
but just out of my touch
this is a magic net
of being drawn
does he not feel
my reach

I’m not disappointed,  I never expected anything from you.

Keep it up

You are spider with web of beauty,
Laden with sparkling dew I see
If I were to fly into your net
would you devour me as soon as met?
If I be hapless and helpless
would you give me forgiveness?
Would you bind me in your silken thread
or set me free to go instead,
then would you let me stay
capture freely or send me away?
Tell me was this poor fly can do
When caught by the attraction that is you.

Sometimes, there is not there what is thought to be there.

Thank you.

What light through yon window breaks?  It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
