Another Lover

You are right

I have another lover

I just do not know

Who she is

She pulls at my heart

Drawing me away from here

She keeps me looking

In the shadows

Where my mistress

May be lurking


You are right

I have taken another lover

Who soothes my soul

And listens to my dreams

But she is ethereal

I cannot see her

A shrouded secret

Kept deep from me

But drawing my attention


I have another lover

Another woman that draws

My affection

Who soaks in my interest

Leaving you for want

I am sure her arms are warm

But I may never know

They have never held me

Depriving me of that

Soft caress


Your lips are cold

Hers are warm

And yet, otherwise

Undefined

But full – I imagine

Full kisses, charged

With longing passion

Bestowed without regret

Or required recompense

And they linger

In no hurry

To finish their task


I have another lover

Somewhere, waiting with a smile

And loving eyes

Who will hold me

With slender arms and

Receiving thighs

I do not know her

But she is far from here

And it is time for me

To leave

My love,

          Has been given away

A/N:

Did you make it all the way to here?  Good Job! Personally i have a very short attention span and a poem of this length makes my eyes glaze over and my brain slump into numbness.  Although I do apply discipline and when reading others works and force myself into focused patience so that I may take in the gems out there. 

Anyhow, how did you like the poem?  If it resonated please click that star, leave comment if you have thoughts you would like to share.  And if you want credit in the Karma bank, share the poem with someone who might like it.

To infinity and beyond,
