Alone, wishing...

Amarantine sweetness brushes a shaking hand

Across my brow

In that muddled confusion

Of first glances at the world

I fancy that it is you

Feel the warmth of your embrace

Only to find myself alone, wishing

Two in a row....from the racks to the stacks to the best on wax...this is definitely a hit with me. I like the short style of the last two I have read. So much packed in, I found this one warm and inviting with a hint of sadness and longing but not deperation. Great writing.

i like see you pondering on a lonely shore,and really feeling a smooth hand ,so warm brushing gently and feeling a gentle embrace ,and the breeze hitting your face ,only too cold to wake you to know its just a wish in a dream,and all lonely
lovely write

So much melancholy in this piece. It's hard to feel the person you want, only to have that person not be there.
