Eternal Desire

While in the
arms of another
I realized that you
were my one and only love,
and from that day forward
I have always been true
to you, and I always will.
That is my eternal desire,
for you to share the same
feelings that I feel.

Ouch. A hard way to learn. Honesty at its most painful level.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

the poem is well meant and I do hope that most hear can actually share their feelings, most often it isn't...

Non Sum Qualis Eram Bonae Sub Regno Cynarae
(I am not as I was under the reign of the good Cynara)

Last night, ah, yesternight, betwixt her lips and mine
There fell thy shadow, Cynara! thy breath was shed
Upon my soul between the kisses and the wine;
And I was desolate and sick of an old passion,
Yea, I was desolate and bowed my head:
I have been faithful to thee, Cynara! in my fashion.

All night upon mine heart I felt her warm heart beat,
Night-long within mine arms in love and sleep she lay;
Surely the kisses of her bought red mouth were sweet;
But I was desolate and sick of an old passion,
When I awoke and found the dawn was grey:
I have been faithful to thee, Cynara! in my fashion.

I have forgot much, Cynara! gone with the wind,
Flung roses, roses riotously with the throng,
Dancing, to put thy pale, lost lilies out of mind;
But I was desolate and sick of an old passion,
Yea, all the time, because the dance was long:
I have been faithful to thee, Cynara! in my fashion.

I cried for madder music and for stronger wine,
But when the feast is finished and the lamps expire,
Then falls thy shadow, Cynara! the night is thine;
And I am desolate and sick of an old passion,
Yea, hungry for the lips of my desire:
I have been faithful to thee, Cynara! in my fashion.
