I Could, Now? I can look but I can not touch. Take the fire iron from the flame and burn my sight for evermore. Scorch my eyes and burn to oblivion my power to see your enticing face. Construct a wall around your allurement to block my prying eyes and hinder my altruism. Squirrel your paragon around every blind turn and when you feel my being, prematurely make your withdrawl. I can not look I can not touch I will forever feel. The hardest thing to do is watch the one you love, love another. |

James, Welcome to Passions. I love this poem. It must be read multiple times. Each time, it sinks right into my essence and you've managed to say how I didn't know how I felt. Look forward to reading more of your work. Enjoyed greatly, Hugs, Pat ![]() ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

Thanks to James for finding this, I had missed your first post, rkcraig. Intense, and the imagery scorches. Is it too late to still say welcome? ![]() |

You could also let it happen, you know....as safe as walls and mazes keep you, they isolate to the same degree...... A most delectable first post. Welcome aboard! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
