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
