    If You Let Me

    I don’t know if you love me anymore.But I know I love you—and I still lust for you.Even after all these years,after the weight we’ve both carried,after the silence between us.I want you.I don’t know how to begin,as if...

    • I understand completely the words you put together about a subject I know quite well.
      I’ve written similar pieces and shown my wife, hoping for a spark to keep the fire alight.
      Hope your terrific composition has more success than mine.

    • The yearning is palatable. I hope it goes well.

    My Eyes Open

    My eyes open, to the imagined. My eyes closed, to the real.   My ears open, to hallucinations. My ears closed, to your voice.   My mouth open, to ramblings. My mouth closed, to anything sensical.   My hand open, once to yours. My hand closed, now to yours.

    • Indeed, everything changes. I would suspect, or at least in my own life, the choice to switch what I am perceiving is all interconnected.

    • Das ist ein sehr schönes Gedicht, Daniel! Ich kann mich absolut damit identifizieren.
      The use of opposites is the perfect stylistic device to underline the fact that in our dreams and illusions we are most alive! Brilliant!

    • That must be the secret because some people seem to enjoy it a little too much sometimes. But in all seriousness, there are definitely days where it feels like you might as well just embrace it because that’s all there is left to do. Kind of reminds me of some song lyrics from a song I like, “So I made friends with all my demons/ Let ’em sink their teeth in/ Got used to the feeling of letting it go” and a mix of “you either laugh about it or you’ll cry”.

      • Thanks for the comment and the time it took to write it.

        I find sitting still quite pleasant these days.No noise except for the sound of the universe.

    • How painfully correct you are.. and yet
      while painful I still found the ability to smile during the read. Humans are indeed idiots.

    • It always seemed weird to me that in a world full of people most of us feel lonely. Great ink.
