The ceaseless tears of this obsession <br />Drown my face in the lonely night, <br />It is all the fantasy of imagination, <br />But I want to encircle your neck with kisses <br />Like the necklace your grandmother gave you. <br /> <br />I admire your perseverance and dedication, <br />You go to work and you’re still in school <br />Pursuing your Masters degree; <br />You keep Coldplay melodically <br />Playing in your stereo. <br /> <br />It has nearly been a year <br />Since I’ve seen your sad and pensive eyes <br />And the source of that sadness you never did reveal, <br />Not even when I was vaguely in your life, <br />But it pulled me in like a planetary black whole, <br />In every way I prayed to the gods <br />I could know you. <br /> <br />Your birthday is a few weeks away, <br />You may celebrate with family in Pennsylvania, <br />Or you may sing karaoke with your special friend; <br />Now, I only implore the gods <br />To see you again!<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-girl-i-once-saw-with-a-ponytail/
