Wanting and waiting

By Bee.Lover

It's not love

That died long ago 

And in it's wake

Left only lust

 

Sinful thoughts like never before 

It's engulfing my life

My mind

I can't think 

 

The voice in the back of my mind 

Has moved to the front 

I'm drowning in the words

"Let's be friends"

 

It's all I want 

But I want more 

I crave it

I crave the touch, the thrill

 

I need relief 

Relief from this pressure 

It builds every time I see her

I need her like I  need oxygen 

 

To pull her body into mine 

Kiss her soft lips like I need it

A greedy, selfish embrace 

That would satisfy the beast awaking inside me

 

But she's only my friend

And I can't ask for more

And this is only a poem

Written words left unspoken 

"I want you too"

    And I think I know why.

     

    I've pulled back from people 

    Only interacting with animals and strangers online

    Radio silence

    I'm opening my phone

    To nothing 

    No messages, no emails, no missed calls,

    All I'm getting is radio silence 

     

    The sinking feeling in my heart returned

    The one where you know something is wrong

    It's dark out now.

    Stinging my eyes

    The tears come

    Pouring down

    Relentlessly.

    Still breathing 

    Still warm

    Yet dead 

    To me

    And me alone.

    Grief floods me

    Again 

    I'm drowning
