You don’t ~~ Know Me ~~, but I know you
these eyes see everything you do
They  gaze upon each word you write
onscreen to mind, within my sight
your thoughts define your heart and soul
my eyes have viewed and so have told
me of your love and of your need
your passion’s fire consumes with greed
my longing ache so deep within
You don’t ~~ Know Me ~~, except as ‘friend’…


You don’t ~~ Know Me ~~, but someday will
you  see my face, but I am still
not picture-perfect-tempting-lust
but in these eyes, a childlike trust
just wanting to reach out and say
that maybe we will meet someday
when standing on two different shores
our hearts will join in astral force
and we will be as one in thought
and letting distance harm us not…


you don’t ~~ Know Me ~~, but what I read
of yours has planted longing's seed
your voice would fall on waiting ear
your smile would spawn enduring cheer
your touch would lift my passion high
and from within, pull out a sigh
your eyes would through my fortress see
the naked truth of all that’s me
your kiss would always feel at home
on lips that won’t leave yours alone
don’t judge me footloose, fancy free
just take some time and
~~ Know Me ~~

Sunny1 it's amazing how much of someone you can see from that which is written. We expose so much of ourselves with the poetry we write. You've done a wonderful job capturing that sentiment.

This is one where I say...I wish I had written it...the words flowed, as did the melody of the piece...

maybe, perhaps, I DO know "you"...{~,^}

Oh, yes....you are so right. That's why poets expose themselves to the world in their work....it all comes from their inner selves. There's no holding back!! Thank you!!  

~~~ SEA ~~~
Thank you, too!!  Well....I don't know about you, but there's no way I can control my muse!! Ha!!  

~~~ Seymore ~~~
