Per chance to linger irreverently in love

Folder: 
Soulmates II

 

 

I'm seaching for traces of you in the ether left of your short presence 

The warm glow of basking in your thoughts of me 

The quiet pleasure of knowing I've affected you in some way

Unruffled you refuse to give anything away 

You didn't think it through 

My soul has a window on you 

The stony looks hide nothing of our irreverent connection 

Lost to the world for seconds that fill the void with lifetimes 

Scorched by those burning eyes 

your glow already envelops me

Don't get too close,  

Sparks have a habit of spurring flames 

We know better than to mix fire with gasoline 

A quick touch 

Transfers so much

 I am left reeling

I push you away though you still linger in my atmosphere

Standing in your vacated place 

Till the last vibration of warmth dissipates 

And my soul has the course to move again

searching for another chance to hover near you 

In time and spaces undefined by the regular course of love.

Don't let any one shake your dream stars from your eyes, lest your soul Come away with them! -SS    

"Well, it's love, but not as we know it."

When you feel what you used

When you feel what you used to feel and for some reason it comes as complete shock though it shouldn't... life eh?

Sparks have a habit of spurring flames

A smouldering suppressed emotion can turn into a conflagaration Rightly said

deep within the soul, hiding

deep within the soul, hiding beneath your eyes
like delicate blooms, gone amist the winter skies
an Earth's precession, marks the depth of time
in those flickering moments, was something divine
like voices made of light, echoing the eternity of your gaze
lusting for what they cannot have, flames of passion ablaze
your words acost me, enrapturing the fabric of my soul
don't let that slip away, that for which we love
