the inflection of your words
lays heavy upon my mind
oh, you'd not have to speak a word
for me to know you
and in a room of a thousand yous
or in a hall of words
laid bare to the world
you could hide amongst them
and still my heart would seek you
and find you
as sure as any bloodhound
as swift as any hawk
oh yes I'd know you
you are an arial view into my soul
your tones, your phrases
even the twist of a joke
runs it's course straight
through to my heart
and leaves me yearning and aching
for things better left unthought
upon the firmities of this earth
yet instead the realms of my mind
untapped as to it's power
hold me a willing captive
to your remembered smile

and my exit in a final closing x
as soft blue light closes around me
plunging me into a dark velvet night
leaves me

l

g

for a bittersweet kiss
that only you can give
and I lay wakeful and wanting
deep in the realm of maybe

laid bare to the world
you could hide amongst them
and still my heart would seek you
and find you

Beautiful poem very well written. "Deep in the realm of maybe."  I like that very much. I found the "yearning and aching for the things better left unthought upon the firmities of this earth."  quite interesting to say the least.

Excellent poetry!!
