viscerous.

viscerous.

A Poem by jenniewren (J.W. Bouwman)

there is a longing
a cliche
of girl for boy
of child for mother
of soul for light

there is a longing


there is a melancholy

a wisdom

of sun for dusk

of tree for amber

of coal for diamond

there is a melancholy


there is a girl
unfinished
forever longing
the kissing rush
a melancholy of things
she yearns for

there is a girl

What does she yearn for most? a kiss? No I think it is much more than that. I like the road of comparisons here that took us on the journey of understanding this girl and her need.

There are forces in the universe that are undeniable with the need to dream and love being high up there on the list. Love that opening stanza.

There is a girl who melds meanings and emotions into three glorious stanzas. Your need pulls at the heart, and makes it stop a second.
