i hear your voice
that off key humming
that soft yet deep toned
murmuring
that distinct chuckle
that sweet nothing filled echo
i strain to hear you
to make it real
to place it in my time
but just as always
you go silent
sensing you have
come too near
what keeps you away?
you know i await
that fated chance
not promised
no, not at all
but dreamt of
and longed for
but thought of
and prayed for
and kept
within my
wounded self
to give the
emptiness
some company
You give voice to my fears of what love I’ve lost. Does that make sense? You allow me to see love’s truth. Thank you again for sharing your feelings.
Yes it does make sense, thank your Carl for saying so, I think we all have that fear inside
but also the hope of just not finding it yet =)
The object of desire is quite multifaceted here…a person, God, a memory, a wish. Perhaps you did not mean it to be so, but that is what I perceive. Am I reading too much into these words…say not please, leave me my dreams 🙂
What you have perceived only adds to the layers of meaning, please dream on =)
well written…love this, love this
Thank you so very much!! =)
