Wanting (Free verse) by J.B. Manning
I long to see your face
To taste
If nothing else
The pleasure of your insult
I yearn to touch your skin
To walk with you
To once again
Speak of nothing and everything between us
I dare to flow
You know
The words I need to show
To you
To me
To set again my soul so free
Walk with me into yesterday or tomorrow
But never today
Because itâs cold here
And I much prefer the beach
I am cheap
You say
Or want to say
But not so much as the movie
Or the play
So you stay
Away

Right on my brother...couldn't have said it any better myself!
Also, you can't make your comments more true by writing Yiddish at the end of them.
