Powerless

Can’t say yes

                To your enveloping embrace…

Cannot agree

                With your sugar covered trickery

Cannot control

                 These tiny shivers of cold…

Can’t foresee

                 What you do to me…

Cannot confess

                 Am I lonely…or obsessed…

Can’t stop

               Once you started this plot

Can’t say yes

                 To the warmest caress

Can’t say no

                  When you ask me if you should go…

Great words. We often have such moments when we cannot decide what is right and what is wrong. Should i take the plunge or should i hold back? Lovely poem. Love your work.

This was creative, very creative. I specially love this line: Can't say yes to the warmest caress
There are a lot of can'ts in this world isn't there? Some are good but the mayority of time they're bad becasue they keep us from seeing beautiful stuff...
Cannot confess I'm lonely? wow, you just knew how I feel... I don't want to tell anybody that I feel lonely..
I think most of the population of the world can relate to this. You did an amazing job writing this one.
