Always

Always you captivate me;
always you leave me wanting to ask you
what you meant, and
why your heart bleeds so strongly
when mine can be slashed open and not spill a drop.

Always I stare at my blank sheet,
always thinking about so many words
that can perfectly explain you,
always scribbling my fury when the words leave me.

 

Always I watch you,

from near and a f a r,

always with the same awe for how your lips form words

that your mind doesn't even know are coming yet.

 

Always they surround you,

swarming like moths-

no, like hungry bees to the most sensual, delicious flower

in the garden of Eden.

 

Always I read poems you write,

always love poems describing their perfection,

always mentioning their beautiful eyes that stare from a f a r.

Always I love how you write a f a r.

((sometimes))

I think maybe the one you mention is me.

 

but

Always I know we are just dreamers,

always attempting to live out our greatest fantasy

if only in a moment's blissful thought.

 


Always I will remember you,

always you will remember me,

always we will be together,

in suspended harmony,

because always we have our poetry.

    Isn't it so true...

    How often I read poems and thoughts here by others and wonder about certain aspects that evoked similar feelings and memories... taste words that hit bone. I love the uncertainty... not being quite sure. It fuels my thoughts...sets my mind free to roam and run where it will. Thanks for penning this, I really enjoyed it.
    Kudos, Kj

    good

    this struck me as beeing very haunting, wishful, the poet - fantasizing about something that could never be - a phenomenon that only in this cyber age could become so prevalent. I also have met people on the net and wanted to meet them in person. keep writing -
    and never give up your dreams

    this is brillant. an admiration. and i am not commenting just because you asked but because i agree. this poem does deserve attention.
    reminds me of jacobean poetry tho. they pfter idolizes or said that the person they were writing about would gain eternal glory from their poems/sonnets.
    not saying that this does that but it reminds me of that.
    my fav lines:
