I caught a glimpse of you— <br />While I was riding a train <br />I saw you walking down the street <br />and I asked myself what will <br />it take to have her... <br />do I need a special key to unlock <br />the place of her that is secret <br />even to her; so secret that the <br />very soul of her cannot fathom <br />where it is hid? And yet, I keep <br />trying even to the point that <br />I've started studying everything <br />I've tried. For you see, the hit <br />and miss method has afforded <br />me nothing; although, I realize <br />I should know better because <br />chance Has never been kind to me. <br />I've never been lucky at things <br />like this, not like some people <br />that get it all and have it all. <br />I don't care, my darling, if <br />you're committed to something <br />vowed or someone for I wish <br />only to share the bit of me that <br />you'll enjoy and nothing more <br />than I'll enjoy. So I've resorted <br />to field notes filled with symbols <br />and scientific notations, drawings <br />and pictures, shorthand indicating <br />your moods by way of your silence, <br />smiles and frowns, the glow and dim <br />of your gaze; but, I've only <br />managed to loose myself in the <br />beauty of your unpredictable <br />disposition for the waves emitting <br />your aura serve merely to titillate <br />and entice me, to frustrate and <br />twist me and again I'm left holding <br />nothing but the desperate yearn <br />swinging within me like a pendulum <br />tolling from the steeple of my <br />desire, the bell clanging endlessly <br />within the sealed hollow of me.... <br /> <br />©2011 j.a.o.a. <br />©2011 Jose' Antonio Orellana Artolozaga<br /><br />Jose' Antonio Orellana Artolozaga<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-caught-a-glimpse-of-you/
