Lost
Of you and your power over me
The guard on my mind is falling apart
The walls around my heart crumbling slowly
You do things to me that I cannot explain
Lovely sensation that tickles and curls the toe
Causing me to lose track of time
Restless is now my second name
While I wait and watch for you
Hoping only for a glimpse
Thoughts of you keep me awake
Of things we can do together
And the things I want to do to you
I’m torn between the choices I have to make
Whether to let you go or hold you tight
But I know I cannot choose
I cannot resist you no matter how hard I try
You’ve owned me completely
I love it even when I hate it
Without your touch, I’m nothing
My memory is a mess when it comes to you
You always creep up to me
Snuggling in at odd times
Bringing smiles to my trembling lips
I never wanted you in the beginning
I loved staring at nature and enjoying the quietude it brings
Till you came along and changed everything
I don’t regret a single moment spent in your arms
I can’t breathe till I hear your voice
The so familiar baritone
Soothing the aches around my heart
It’s become a sweet pain
As familiar as oxygen
Itching yet pleasurable
I throb with desire for you
Only your flavour can quench this hunger
Don’t make me wait forever
This poem is a little personal. Don’t ask, LOL. It took me more than an hour to write. I’ve never spent that much time on a poem before.
Enjoyed it? Tell me your thoughts.
