Emotional Enigma

You crossed my mind early this mornin’...


To admit I miss you is to confess there’s a void

To say I’m confused is to concede I’m tormented by desire

To replay the good moments is to create a deeper longing

Adoration blindly constructed
Fragmented exposed emotions

To uncover a deficiency is to admit there’s a quandary

To want you in my life is to expose my emotions...vulnerability

To ponder unanswered questions is to assume the worst

Fragile yet resilient
Pliable yet strong-willed


To be unresponsive is to tolerate crippling hesitation

To ignore and forget is to repeat past faux pas

To understand and forgive is to acquire a mature mindset

A delicate affair
Necessitates reciprocity



Who grips the precious missing piece?

Timeless Quote ~ Character

People are like stained glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is
revealed only if there is light from within.

Friends


Who said being “friends” is easy?
Especially when you’ve already taken me to a place of ecstasy
Like they say “you love who you love”
Easier said when you’re not looking at me from above

Funny thing is that when I tried to keep it on the friend tip before
I think you really loved me from behind a clear, glass door
Immaturity kept me from allowing you in
Found comfort in guarding my heart with you as a friend

Not an inkling that I’d ever feel as strong as I do
Not comfortable enough to let my sensitive heart beam through

Lust at first but does that really change?
Especially when you playfully nibble my lips
sheer restraint keeps me from moaning your name

We’re like the girl and boy on a seesaw
Each patiently taking the lead
How high can you take me...?
No, how high can you take me...?
You want me to scream but I’m taking my time
Taking time to see if you really know how to take me high and ease me down slow
Emotions all over the place being tossed to and fro

I wasn’t expecting to be this much in “like” with you
Spending too much time trying to figure out what to do
Easily lost in private thoughts of deeper friendship, affection and growth
What I mean to you is what I’d like to know the most

Desperately trying to take things day by day
Knowing that it makes perfect sense to wait
Not having you...all of you...is something I’m starting to hate

Just being “friends” is harder than I thought
Wanting to keep it pure but at the same time I’ve already been caught

Caught up in the comfort of knowing you and intoxicated by your sensuality
You probably don’t know that I’m caught up...and I just want us to...be

This is an oldie...kinda makes me laugh now to remember where my mind was at the time.

Timeless Quote ~ Love & Hate

It is better to be hated for what you are than to be
loved for something you are not.

When Desire Meets Daydreams


Love will find me
Behind the superficial mask of contentment
Open my heart to the possibilities


He wraps his strong, comforting arms around my eager yet cautious desire

Quietly sneaks up from behind, waking me from an emotional slumber

Catches me off guard by his disarming charm and wit

Whispering sweet words of reassurance that this is meant to be

Slowly detangling my heart from past infatuation, setting it free to love and be loved

He gazes deeply into my weary eyes with a piercing command of my attention…I’m rendered speechless

Grasping my hand gently taking the lead, admiring my beauty like a precious work of fine art

He admires my intellect just as much as my physique

Unlocking my protected, guarded heart, he seeks and finds the true me

She, who has the capacity to love, desires to be the apple of his eye

He energizes me, intertwines our aspirations and loves me for me

Soothes my hesitation with acts that reveal dedication

His attentiveness shines on me and defies logic, yet I groove with it

Proving to me that it doesn’t hurt to freely love and trust another…no regrets…no shame

Not taking my affection for granted, he appreciates my quirks

He applauds my successes and persuades me to break through roadblocks and setbacks

His name is Love and he caught me daydreaming

Passion’s intoxicating perfume erased the days I only reached him through my dreams

Separated by miles and time…could he be the one?
