Today, 365 days ago – you touched me
“let me show you somethingâ€
Your eyes were searching, while fear, excitement froze mine
“I promise this won’t be sexualâ€
And never was it so - In any of the stolen moments which followed.
We both met our matches
Bewildered - Callousness overrides our passions
Inner honesty – attraction
The same, we turned out to be
No dreams, no hopes
- Just the now
Time – stolen – back seats
Long distance, wish fullness
Hours on line, Communication gaps
Longing – Wishing - Wanting
Steamy tables, Countertops, chairs
A degree of furniture
“How serious are youâ€
Was our undoing
A year past, who would have believed
Didn’t plan on this
To give up all for you
But never asked the same
Duty binds you, molds you
Makes me love you more
It hurts - understanding now
In another reality
We would flame each other burn
Soul mates
Would this have been true?
I wanted control as did you
Now I see – feel – know
You give more then you know
Finally I understood what it took
For you to give
For days, months
I felt unworthy
Your eyes were brave
You word were true
As your shacking body and eyes of hurt said:
“I love youâ€
It showed you didn’t want too
For fear losing to much
Your hands made me hope
I hated it, yet I came addicted
And wanted only that -
No responsibility no stones
Just us!
Craving a fairytale
I want the fairytale
I want the dream
Only now in the wee hours of morning
Obligations –mattering to make others happy…to do our duty
“Freedom is in the headâ€
You were right
Prisoner of life –
You are my freedom
To where I run
To hide from reality
To take the mask off & be just me
One year of an affair
I told myself that
To make you feel better
Lying to us
“This has never, was never and will never be oneâ€
Still now…it isn’t
But duty Overpowers us
Stolen moments of truth
Until it is no longer enough.
