Perpetuity

@Uootem

perpetual nights of conjecture
could there be something of 'us' again
like I remember in my heart
yet I know that the moment has passed.

          countless days of hoping for the existence
          of a special moment we could share,
          and words that must remain unspoken
          yet written then carefully locked away.

                    endless pain of realizing,
                    a poem is just a collection of words,
                    and meanings just sometimes pass
                    with no understanding.

I wonder, if you realize
I have forever hoped there could be more.
and if you knew would you feel it too?
and would it really matter if you did?

          your lovely eyes and their affect on me.
          my melting at your tender touch.
          the taste of springtime in your kiss.
          the sound of your voice as it whispers in my ear.

                    these bring light into this darkened heart,
                    and makes me wish all over again
                    this distance here would not keep us apart.
                    but time is such a cruel accountant.

i yearn for dreams that we both share to come true?
I wish that love were easier than dealing with its losing
and words didn't mean so much,
and I could speak from my heart that you so often touch.
