Lost

Sweet torture, this feeling has become
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

Day and night you invade my dreams
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 you, I’m lost
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 need you so much I can taste it
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.
