Tempting words whispered softly,
meander among thoughts
as room darkens.
Moon shadows dance across
soft bare skin.
Need to feel love so compeling,
drawn to the voice
of the stranger.
Though not the one in my heart,
lay softly upon me.
Let me feel alive without hurting,
let sorrow vanish,
if only for this night.
Stop this missing and longing,
he left deep within.
Make me forget how his love,
touched my soul,
made my passion soar.
All I ask of you is one night,
not to feel so lonely.

I identify with this poem.
Yes Sandy, it is the same
That for me it has been going.
The tom on my bed is too tame.
All he's been doing is snoring!
That tom cat is really lame.
He is nothing but boring;
And this is a real shame.

Tis a poem from my heart
In the night tears do start
We fall in love then we lose
Not exactly what we chose
But it happen to us everyday
We miss the love that went away
Well hello again Tiki Cat You are sure getting around . So nice to know you understand. Now snoring is not good to listen to biut at least he is with you there. Right now I would gladly take the snoring. 
You have a GREAT dasy. Take care.

Hello My Friend
Thank you for the thoughtful comment. So glad you enjoyed reading. Yes I do believe there is a love so great we feel for a person that it can never be found quite as wonderful with another. They remain in our hearts forever and no one can truly compare or take their place..
Bless you my friend. Hope your day is going well. I am sure Pen is off conjuring up something plotting his next move.
Always, Sandy

What a powerful work. To soften life and be without heartfelt passion and be left without that lonely feeling for just one night. This moves so well as the reader accepts the love gap to take life forward one more day. Good luck with the contest

Ah Sandy,
Memories are made for realling and it is sad that the last one was of goodbye, but remember the good times and accept that at least you have these to cherish, for some things are meant to be and some are not, as all relationships have a small chance of success. Take care ..good to see you again. Abeautiful rose loses its' petals but the meory remains.

wonderful take on the title. Your words put depth to that emotional loneliness after someone had move so deep into our soul that one yearns for escape for the emptiness left behind.
