Haunted by you

By Cant walk away

my hands tremble wanting to reach out
nothing is there but i can feel you
close to me, closer, still closer....
Hands touching, caressing, embracing
face to face, so close almost there
Kiss me! Kiss me! i cant stand it

Like a thief in the night you have come
Conquering me is your only goal
In the best ways you have taken control
I cant help but want more.
if only you knew what you could do
If only it could stay this way

The look in your eyes, so intense
I can hear your thoughts, feel your wanting.
The feeling flows through me like the halo effect
everything fades its just us... but no one.
What is this, what, what?
completely entranced, its all so close.
and then its gone....

    lost loves always felt like desperately trying to cling to the memories of a dream you wake from, those intense waking ones. Like grabbing at smoke from a fire that used your heart as kindling. I liked this, in a melancholy way. Thank you

    I hear The Cure. In nearly every line I can hear Robert Smith singing the words of this poem. And for me there is not really any greater compliment I can give without you becoming me in my mind.

    Good write, the feeling of longing and the need for contact is intense. Is it meant to be someone who is not there or someone who left? Very raw and emotional, great job.
