Dormant

Contributed by helianthus on Tuesday, 1st March 2005 @ 06:08:27 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



Unrequited love simply hibernates.
Emotions awakened at every chance meeting.
Feelings of hunger and lust, one in the same, overwhelm me.
Love so strong, it floods when it wakes and permeates through to the heart of me.

You will never be told.
I am not free so this love matters not in the slightest.
You would be uncomfortable and, perhaps, silly.
I have no desire to see a man reduced to immaturity.
Perhaps you would avoid me. Find excuses to be excused. Reasons to explain your reasons.
Perhaps you would love me.

No. I cannot let on. Instead I hide it. I keep it all in.
My heart is a cave. Dark, yes, but I am burning.
I am in it, yet it is empty.
I am the one who hibernating. Not my love.
I cannot sleep forever.
I will not love anyone else.

Awakened. Put to sleep. What does it matter?
I cannot have you.

Well written poem-
Sort of hit home-
My question to you is this-
"What did he feel for you and did you just use this person for your own benefit?"-
Did you at least say goodby to give closure to the matter?
I am not trying to be harsh-
I have been there before and without closure the heart will become ugly and soon loose the will to forgive.
Joe

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
