Mr. Write

Mr. Write

 

From the moment we were introduced,

I felt a longing for your touch.

Something about you is so intriguing,

Your presence’s just too much.

 

Your eyes, so dark and mysterious,

I feel them gazing through my soul.

Your demeanor’s so inviting,

My inhibitions take the toll.

 

Do you know what you’re doing,

As you elicit my desire casually?

Am I the only person who feels this way?

Or has infatuation engulfed just me?

 

Perhaps in another time, another place,

When we would have met

I could live another life, another moment

One I would not regret.

 

Until that time, I shall avoid caress

As I gaze upon your works.

Dear writer, you captivate me.

In my fantasies, though, I’ll have all the perks.

Good ebb and flow, almost hypnotic...very passionate write.
Going in my Favorites! Thanks for sharing!

First off, your title "Mr Write" is so ingenuous! I love it. I'm a hopeless romantic and your poem touched my heart deeply. I felt sadness here: "Perhaps in another time, another place, When we would have met
I could live another life, another moment One I would not regret." For whatever reason this could not be I felt the pain. As your poem expresses, this love lives on through writing and that special connection.
This is going straight to my favorites!

A pleasant change to read structured poetry dear lady I have no time for some of the writing which poses as poetry Although I can appreciate well written prose

There is a real sweetness to this piece, and I don't mean in a saccharine phony way, but a genuine sweetness that I really found endearing. There are some places where the meter is slightly, but your use of rhyme is quite good. I always appreciate it when people aren't heavy-handed with rhyme and the subtle beauty of the words feels effortless - though clearly that's not the case. That's true craft.

Well done :)

Too true! No matter the writer's intentions for the piece it is our perogative to take what we want from it. Well said.

You're not the only one! I can relate to this. I found so many special ppl here at the Cafe. I'm so greatful. This is a wonderful piece entering my life at the perfect time. You've captivated me!

Hmmm....I like this, because your muse is vague...as odd as that sounds. I'm thinking that you're either reading a piece from this person, and just that alone makes you weak; or the person, personally.

It's like longing from a distance. I like this.

I like this one.

Captivating, passionate
