Full moon rising
Coursing through your veins
Teetering between
Shere madness
Trying to control your affections
Perfectionist, plain and simple
Won't you allow me
To sing you a sweet lullabye
To ease the tensions that control your mind
Are you afraid
Of what you might find?
Sweet emotion
Hiding within the recesses of your soul
Please dont be afraid
To let go
Of all the creatures
Caged up within that dark abyss
Longing for a simple friendship laced kiss...

"Are you afraid
Of what you might find?"

How true!

"Longing for a simple friendship laced kiss..." What a beautiful line!

Another great one.

Sincerely,
The Titus

The One, The Only... The Titus.

Absolutely incredible..flowed really nicely. I agree that the last line is a beautiful end to an amazing poem. Keep writing!

The day you were born, you were born free
That is your privilege.

I love the metaphors you use in your writing, you have great imagery.  I too am a perfectionist, and it sucks!

Great poem!
