LONGING

I
Love you
That isn’t so hard to say
I
Need you
That isn’t so hard to express
I
Want you
That isn’t so hard to get
Pourquoi?
Because
Our bodies have been connected
Our souls smelted together
But
You deny me
You refuse me
You reject me
Pourquoi?
 CHANGE
Before
Love
Happiness
Joy
Were the feelings that made us
Before
Sunshine
Rainbows
And blue skies
Were the elements embedded in us
Then,
Change happened
Hate
Sadness
Grief
Became the feelings we had
Rain
Thunder
And gloomy skies
Became the elements we needed
That is change
For real.
 NUMB
No pain
No happiness
No sadness
No guilt
No anger
No hatred
No love
Just numbness
Absolutely
Nothing
At all.

 AWAY
The pain
Of not getting to see you
The gain
Of actually getting to meet you
The strain
Of staying away for sometimes
A week
Makes me weak
A year
Makes me yearn
For
Your touch
Your love
And probably
Your body

 PAIN
Pain
Certainly, part of life
Cries
Shouts
Pleads
Tears
All the beauty of pain
