At Arm's Length

Folder: 
LOVE

I wear this feeling of love around me

like a veil of grace and warmth

Smiling, shining, shimmering



You never needed words, my dear

Beautiful eyes and smiles speak more to me

Than your velvet voice.

Louder, faster, clearer



I know daylight is coming soon,

I feel it inside my soul like a beacon of

Perfect and utter beauty

Rising, moving, breaking



Though there is no definite framework,

There is dark attraction

and hidden desire.

Jolting, spinning, dizzying



You subjugate me - -love me,

With that mysterious smirk

and no definite answers.

Brooding, staring, silence.



I shall never know certainty

Again, like before. This is

All your fault.

Blatancy, avoidance, annoyance.



I wish you away,

Or I wish you to stay.

I'll keep this veil of love and warmth

to hide behind while

you ignore me and keep me

at arm's length.

I keep hoping.
