You, your love you're always vaunting.
You, you always leave me wanting.
You’re always gone but always haunting.
I am hungry for your touch.  
You are the hunter, me the prey.
But you keep me miles and miles away.
And the cage that circles ‘round my heart
Bars me from running very far.

You Tarzan. Me Jane.
I’m stuck in the jungle; you’re on a plane.

somehow...in the movies, there is always a convenient vine--smile?

(NOW there's a title!)

A convenient vine...depends upon the swing of thangs tho...yanno?

(of course you do)

thump-thump-thump

"me tarzan---you came?"

(forgive me? it's late, or early, depending upon if you've slept)

LMAO!!!!!!!!! i tell myself... never read the comments that came before me... for exactly this reason.. i'm sitting here chuckling over a comment and totally forgot what i wanted to say to YOU! *rolls eyes*

{{regaining composure}}

you know.... this
"And the cage that circles ‘round my heart
Bars me from running very far"

is a deep line ... offering me a place to ponder with my own thoughts... i like that.

My Dearest Lily, your poetic and emotional valley runs very deep.

This aches with lonliness ~ and frustration.
There was a time, when I too, could have expressed similar sentiments ~ but trust me, they could not have been written as raw or as real as this. You truly are a poetess and one with a wealth of talent.

Love ya, lily!

Just get the magic carpet out of the closet
It's much faster than a plane. LOL

Smiling at you, Jo.  This hurts.  But I ask you where is Cheetah?  Cheetah was always my favorite, always hanging around, stirring up trouble!  Take care, Jo.

A hot night in the jungle, ALONE, is not much fun.

Like!  This is creative and fun and yet smacks of emotion.  It also made me chuckle.  Hugs to you--

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Snow - How could you not help but laugh -- I've told her she needs to do stand up comedy for real....one witty gal, for sure.  The poem is a deep one, but not to worry..... humor is the key to everything I think (wish I had a little more; my wit is pretty dry, really).  

Earth Angel - You are correct but it never lasts too long -- I am a moody gemini at times (still trying to integrate the twins, I think! lol).  Thank you, Angel, for your very thoughtful post.  You flatter me so.....love you, jo

Seymour -- I will consider that purchase before long, I s'pect!  LOL    

miscellanea - No, not meant to hurt.  Past that.  Cheetah, now there's an idea!  luv, jo

Midnitesun - Yes!  You got it!

Susan - I am really pleased you found the humor in it (beyond the loneliness) because that was the intent (along with the emotional outburst -- lol).  Glad you chuckled...it was supposed to do that.  *hugs* back, jo

Passing Shadows - back (Thanks for dropping by.)

Sunshine - Me smiling.....you, witty!  Thanks for stopping by.  *hugs*
