Tormented Desire

Title: Tormented Desire

Author: Silent Poet

Morning stirs me softly like the Breath of dawn as I take my Leave of your arms and comfort only To rise and go forth unto emptiness.

For I am but a ghost of my true Self without you and even though Your image and love sustains my Baser needs, still I am lost alone.

It seems so strange to think of Being so dependent on another For my personal wholeness, yet You are my sensuous anchor here.

Your calming touch and healing Laughter, your soothing eyes and Dancing lips have eternally Blessed my life with intensities.

But without you there beside me My soul accusingly withers and I Withdraw into a burning maelstrom Of indecision and blind obsession.

You have been the greatest goal I have attained in my life, yet How do I tell you that this is Slowly destroying all my will?

Is it wise for another to live A life of happiness and content Split with a never ending misery When we are separated even briefly?

I will always be with you and keep You forever in my heart and soul;

In this classical dilemma we cannot Be together because I cannot live apart.

This is in Poet's lyric book if you want to request it.
