Him. (Free verse) by Sway
I love.
I love him. I don't think i'll ever have him.
The darkness of my soul sometimes shadows my judgement. The hope lost in
the corner, out of sight.
He sings, but I can't hear it. Like a lover of music, a player of song,
but can only hear with the vibrations of the floor..
He sleeps, but I can't feel his warmth, or the touch of his fingers as
they accidentally brush against me as he dreams.
His dreams. I wonder if I am there, in his vivid world of imagination.
Illusions of want and lust.
Hopes of touch and sensation.
I sit and cry, yearning for the one thing I want, that seems so out of
reach. So unfair. I wipe the tears with the back of my hand. Like a
child.
I sit in bed. Can't sleep. I just want to dream. Of him. To toss and
turn in a nightmare would be desirable, if he was there with me. Selfish.
Faith. Should be a four letter word. So unreachable. So unattainable. So
wanted.
I stand outside and breathe in the air. I smell him. From states away,I
smell him.
The imagination, so incredible.
Overwhelms me...a rush of sanity. A deep sadness engulfs me. Alone. The
smell of the street. Sickening.
Maybe one day...
Maybe him.
Looks to the sky....maybe.
