I feel something
        something imaginative
   something subtle
grazing the tips of my fingers
  It is beautiful
       in its fantastic quality
        something sublime
        something indescribable
   something from which the very fabric
                             of my abstract dreams
                 is woven
  It sleeps in me
and awakes like a fever
this object that can not be defined
can not be described with words
This faint feeling  
      that haunts the corridors of my subconscious
             I can feel it
grazing the tips of my fingers
But I can not touch it
            I can not grab it
            I can not hold it
            I can not possess it!

First of all welcome to the Piptalk forums!  Secondly, GREAT poem.  You have me wondering what it is that you can feel at your fingertips but cannot grasp.  It made me keep reading to see if I could find the answer, kind of the way you keep reading a book to find out whodunnit kind of thing.  Nicely done.  My curiousity is sparked now.  Again, welcome to Piptalk Forums.  I am sure you will make many friends here.

this is great it can be so many things. it seems to be left up to the reader to deside what it is that's felt. it could be love, it could be any emotion, or really anything you want.

Welcome to PiP  loved the poem, i thought the 'grazing the tips of my fingers' was a very cool way to paint the picture, excellent write

Life is a torment and torment an enigma. So burn the shackles of slavery and let love run free
