i can no longer

10.13.2008

i can no longer look into your eyes
they summon me to a place-

not now,

please...

...and yet i will try not to avoid
your stares-
but how much they
weaken
and
build
me,

all at the same time.

A very provocative poem that speaks of one's longings in life. Feelings are conveyed via the eyes that speaks myriads of meanings to a yearning soul. Thanks for the very nice poem. Very short but very meaningful indeed. God bless you always my young friend.
