Prompt: Longing

Just a little thing before I head off to school (gulp).
----------------------------- ----------------------------- -----

Longing

I long for you;
Your touch
The feel of your hands
As they move along
The delicate skin;

The feel of safety
Wrapped securely in your arms;
You are my demon
Of temptation.

I long for you;
Yet you are gone-
You have left me
Once again
To wither away

Dead in the mines
Dead in the fields
Dead anywhere I should go
For without you,
I am dead inside;

So tempt me,
Fill me with longing,
My demon,
My temptation,
All I can do
Is wish I could fight-

But the simple fact is
I long for you;
And until I am with you again
That longing
Will never end.
-------------------------

Your turn.

There's a lot of feeling here, ~Dianna, many of us can identify with that pain, eventually it DOES go.

Moonglow,

Thankies!

Katyzzz,

Most things go eventually... just not all of them. And even the ones that do often come back in other forms not too much later.

A hard pain to endure ...
a harder one to ignore.

Well written, much enjoyed.

Very lovely poem, Dianna. As the human beings, we always being seduced by the demon and temptation, but with the inner strength and faith, we can demolish all the obstacles...
