Yet again, a wanderer at your shore. <br /> <br />Asking and not waiting for your reply. <br />Waiting but not wanting; watching but silently. <br />The eternal presence about eternal emotion <br />That can move rocks to tears: tears, yes, but <br />Fabric-ribbed, wounds and profoundly enough <br />Vacant lots in the mind. <br /> <br />Asking, and not waiting for you to turn back <br />With a glance or a smile. Elegance and rhetoric <br />Once when you took over my imagination <br />And the wonder of it all: the furtive questions that <br />Would insistently knock at my temples at the break of day: <br />Asking but walking away. <br /> <br />Copyright: Rani Turton<br /><br />Rani Turton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/asking-4/
