My lover is a ghost in my mind Oh how I yearn to touch Sending wishes across time and space For the ache is becoming too much Soft kisses from her breath Brush my lips in parted pose Out to the dreamless night My thoughts of her goes My loneliness is measured in miles Sundered from her presence Skin screams for salvation Which pays my penance Burning with desire to melt In the heat of her whisper A caress of a soul’s energy We share in the transfer |

I kind of felt like this was how you feel when you're getting so so close and it never peaks. Good write. |

Across the miles, through the wires maybe....yearning for the tangible.. that ache clear in your words~ |

Allura...thanks, the ache is sometimes to be appreciated. Kaoru...curious as to what you meant about getting close, and never peaking? |

Burning with desire to melt In the heat of her whisper Yearn this intense should bring breathing substance to ghosts... or make flesh and blood female lose all breath. *S* Beautiful work! |

"My lover is a ghost in my mind" ~ and the possibities could be endless and be anything that you could imagine them to be. I do so enjoy your poetry, CG. EA |

CG? I think I know what Kaoru means. It's like waking up before you get to the "money shot"... But of course, your description is much more romantic and poetic. |

The ladies are right on...what feels so good is sometimes so far away, that we will never touch it, that only the memory, or thought of the possibility, can suffice. Your love knows, CG; and may it always be so. Wonderful write. I've a lot of catching up to do with all of my wonderful poets to read. |
