He is like the water I have longed to dip my feet in
Like the air I have longed to breathe in and not regret
He unknowingly has stolen my heart
And gained my respect and my faithfulness
He carry's an essence around him that draws me in
like animal to the drinking hole
Oh how I long to taste his love
To feel his embrace
To have his eyes locked on my mind
And his feelings be the same as mine are....
But dreams are such distant things once the light hits the eyes
And the day comes to take away that image of clear ...hope...
But longing
That never goes away..
Day and night it stays inside me
Walking with me every step of the way...
Mocking me...
Yet he is the most beautiful distant dream
I have ever had....
And I will never stop dreaming....

Wow, very nice write. I like the way it turned to longing towards the end. The first half really set a nice stage, letting me think it was one thing, then turned to another. Good Luck, thanks for entering.
