I watch the birds over head as they cut through the sky <br />Envious of their freedom as they elegantly fly <br />Wishing that it were I that was leaving this place <br />To search of love and passion for my soul to grace <br /> <br />I watch the ripples of tears that flow into the see <br />The rush of emotions I feel, that seem to be escaping me <br />My heart choked by pain of a love that I seem to yearn <br />Across the bridge he waits for me, the bridge that will forever burn <br /> <br />His body I can almost touch, my fingertips miles away <br />So many words of love to him that I long to say <br />Can he even see me does he know that I exist <br />My attraction towards the man that I can not resist<br /><br />nicola burkett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/26-i-look-but-can-t-touch/
