It's Just... Not Enough...
A Poem by Michael G
(Sometimes even a hug can make you feel
"everything.")
It occurred to me
almost as soon
as it ended.
It didn't matter
how I felt
while it was happening.
Yes, it felt good...
better than good.
You are soft, and warm,
and gentle.
The way you feel in my arms
with your body as close as you can be...
makes everything around us
vanish.
You held the hug closer and longer
than I expected...
and I became lost
under your touch.
And then,
when you released me
from your embrace...
I knew...
it just... wasn't enough.
I could hold you
and be held by you...
forever.
If I held you
through five lifetimes...
it still wouldn't be enough.
If you said eternity
and beyond...
then we would be getting closer
to the amount of time
it would take
to satisfy my need for you.
There are many things
we can't get enough of
with each other.
Whenever I think about you...
I smile.
Whenever something reminds me of you...
I feel warm.
Whenever I see you...
my heart quickens.
Whenever you smile my way...
I feel a joy I can't describe.
And whenever you touch me...
even with the smallest of touches...
I am reborn.
My life is about you...
my worth is in making your life
as perfect as I can make it.
You...
are my world...
and you make me complete.
It's just...not enough
to hold you.
It's just... not enough
to say I love you.
It's just... not enough...
it's just...not enough.

If my words make you smile, think, remember, or feel something that you thought was forgotten ... or that you only thought you felt that way and no one else did ... then they did exactly what I wante.. more..
