My words are seeking you

My words are stalking you today
They're preparing a luscious rope
Waiting for that perfect moment
When your heart could be lassoed
Or maybe that's not even possible
Maybe you want to remain
Like a distant mirage
Or a warm breeze at sunset
But alas, try I will
Even if I can only catch my anxious breath
In the shade of your poetic beauty
While your back remains,
Reluctantly turned away -
Just a side-ways glance
Or hearing your soft-spoken voice
Will still this storm in my heart
Until the next time the gods allow
Your eyes to seek out mine.

Like all good poetry it covers the object of your affection so well .... so warmly.y

Thank you for your kind review.....affection sometimes steals sight from our eyes, I think....

And isn't that the most beautiful way to just go blind lol

Good poem SV. The longing shows but wisdom does too. A heart cannot be lassoed with pretty words.

Spot on, Ana. Actions speak louder than words, eh? :)

I think in most cases they do but when you are being harassed words can be pretty loud too. But when it comes to love, words can be empty and actions full of meaning.
