Pray...
Pray
That I may taste of you
Worship at your slender blemishless feet
Feast upon the divine banquet that is your core
Serenade you with praise deserving of your graceful form
That I may traverse the land that is your body
With eyes, hands, lips, tongue...
That I may make your mind my home
That I may always, and forever
Remain in your pulchritudunous presence
Alas, I can not
For you have trapped me in this live cage
Kept me in the proverbial limbo
A bare whisper away
Yet, still screams and echoes apart
The pain weighing heavily on my strained vocal cords
Slowly crushing my fragile heart
But I bear my cross with dignity, the constant torture
And I sit in silence
Watching, waiting
Hoping
For those of us in limbo...
Happy Valentine's Day.
