Too much. I could never bear it.
Never change. Keep this moment forever.
We would. I can't just say goodbye to you.
How it hurts to lose faith;
I would've worshipped at your feet.
Light that warmed without blinding me.
Blossoming, yearning, coming together, alive.
No more your light laughter
to soothe my aching flesh.
My head is burning to ashes.
I wanted to give you flowers, fire, love & sex;
anything alive - all as alive as you are.
To feel you from a remote room,
secure that you were adrift, but alive and all was well.
Just please don't go.
Don't drift out of my life like a daydream;
broken, not worth fixing.
Your elliptical eyes seek mine & find them every time.
Struggling through tears and blame,
shame-faced; I did you wrong.
Don't remember that. Be here. Now.
I want you.

"I did you wrong. Don't remember that."
that line that hit he the hardest. We are often the creators of our worst pain.
...and the authors of our own tragic love stories. And yet, I will insist on doing it to myself. The pleasure is often worth the pain, but thank goodness for poetry
Indeed!
Peace, love, and blessings
'Your elliptical eyes seek mine & find them every time.
Struggling through tears and blame,
shame-faced; I did you wrong.'
how refreshingly honest a write,
I especially like the lack of excuses or overt emotionality reads like a surgical self-analysis of owned mistakes, while standing-up - straight and exclaiming, humbly
'knowingly: I will ask my dear
want you take me back
and give our love
just one more chance'
humility - exemplified, without bending that backbone
a true demonstration of 'purposed introspection'..
