Forlorn Feeling <br /> <br />My love, <br />I long to be in your arms once again <br />To feel your body upon mine <br />Heart to heart <br />Touch for touch. <br /> <br />The road is rough <br />Time gaining pace ahead of us <br />Leaving no room for our love <br />This I know. <br /> <br />We may carve out for us, <br />Love nests in nooks and crannies <br />Console ourselves with adventurous lustful escapades <br />To satisfy our desire <br />This I know too. <br /> <br />But nothing compares to being alone with you. <br />Away from wandering and asking eyes of the earth. <br />Alone in our little world of bliss and fantasy <br />Skin to skin, <br />Heartbeat to heartbeat. <br /> <br />To lay in your arms <br />And listen to your voice <br />To capture and behold your gaze <br />To feel and taste your lips upon mine <br />To touch and adore your being. <br /> <br />To know that amongst your bevy of beauties <br />There still exists in your heart <br />A place not void of love for me. <br />To be assured once again <br />That my love is worthy <br />For this feeling of uncertainty <br />Grips me by the day. <br /> <br />I long to be in your arms once again <br />My love. <br />I pine for it <br />I yearn for it <br />And when it becomes a bleakly hope, <br />I pray for it. <br /> <br />It never ceases too cross my mind. <br /> <br />Time will wait not for us <br />This I know <br />But my love, <br />If not to beget all these <br />But just lay in your arms <br />And find comfort in your words, <br />If only to reassure this fragile heart <br />That beats in forlorn hope…. <br />I long to be in your arms once again.<br /><br />macaulay akinbami<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/chinwe-azubuike/
