addiction

oh to be that breath of air
you take; essential as – must,
to have…
to enter into – the all of you –
to become as close,
as one –
to two…
if just for one moment –
to live in your thoughts –
feel the memories –
encounter your – you!
i would give a thousand
could of been’s –
for just one – is,
a lifetime of – life –
for a moment of – living…
oh how must it feel –
to  be the addiction,
and for once,
not the addict!

sorrow in the knowing

i simply –

do not understand –

in-difference!

it seems to me,

we’d be better served –

by honesty…

what is it about me,

my – self,

causes you such intense,

refrain?

nothing –

in this world –

perceived;

nothing – imagined – true –

nothing i would consider;

conceive – to do,

that would alter my perception of – you…

brighter than the brightest sun –

more dark than night –

your enigmatic – obscurity;

my addiction –

ignites…

how is it –

i know you like – feeling,

like – seeing,

like – touch,

yet you,

simply – hear?

(sorrow in the knowing;

want,

versus need…)
