Shooting By

By HermitX

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

A glance above only reveals The truth we both know too well I walk slowly towards your room Pushing the door open slightly I can't resist going in I find you there Tempting me No reason to hold back I already checked my logic at the door My hand reaches out to touch you Is it an illusion? Does it even matter? No, why should it? I am here and you are here What more could I want? But none of this is important I take the moment by force You are waiting for me The distance quickly disappears In each others arms Emotion drips from your lip A sweet embrace as our faces meet What is to stop us? Passion amuck Will it, dare I say, lead to suck? Perhaps I have said too much For a dark fantasy should never be shared I cannot help myself Desire is uncontrollable I must have you The stars above twinkle for all But the shooting ones are only For those who are quick enough to see Gone as quickly as they were there As quickly as there was usrandom, very confusing Written November 18th, 2001 © on Nov 18 2001 03:54 PM PST   18 • 0 • 8
