I wish I knew your true identity. <br />I wish I knew who you were... <br />Coming into my lfe, <br />Daggerless but cloaked. <br />With mental teases... <br />That do not provoke. <br />Even though you could... <br />But you don't provide a heat... <br />To ignite and get that fire started. <br /> <br />I wish I knew your true identity. <br />I wish I knew who you were... <br />Coming into my lfe, <br />Daggerless but cloaked. <br />With mental teases... <br />That do not provoke. <br />Even though you could... <br />But you don't provide a heat... <br />To ignite and get that fire started. <br />Why? <br /> <br />Do you sense a commonness between us, <br />Perhaps? <br />Do you perceive my 'eclecticness' <br />Has a variety of pieces, <br />I make comfortably fit. <br />And you believe you know 'the how' <br />'The why' and reason I do this? <br />If there is a 'reason behind it at all! <br /> <br />I wish I knew your true identity. <br />I wish I knew who you were... <br />Coming into my lfe, <br />Daggerless but cloaked. <br />With mental teases... <br />That do not provoke. <br />Even though you could... <br />But you don't provide a heat... <br />To ignite and get that fire started. <br /> <br />I sense you like to wine and dine, <br />Under candlelight? <br />But you don't provide a heat... <br />To light and get that fire started. <br />Whether daggerless, <br />But...and, or if cloaked... <br />Or not! <br />We both need something to eat. <br />Curiosity may have killed the cat... <br />But this dude does not feed on teases, <br />Alone!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
