One cannot help but succumb to the
Desires of the flesh. Leaving myself to
My imagination, reading your letters a thousand times over
In my head and pouring my desire into these works.
Waiting for the perfect time that you too may inevitably succumb
To your own hidden desires, caving in and once more, reclusive.
But to thee I owe my affection, have it been stolen away by
Charm. But the affection being no longer with me and leaving an
Empty feeling, burning in the recesses of my mind and crushing my
Morals into a sorrowful web of disillusion and
False hope.
That one day...someone will not pass who is like
Men with simple taste. And lacking the complexity of
Self-pride, without the pity of a mortal. To have a gift to
Pierce beyond ones outer shell of social chaos and
Thrust forth the imbalances that drive men. Only then
Does one look past intellectual flaws and gaze upon the
Beauty of a persons unhindered emotion. Relishing in the
Feeling one gets, one in which they know
What is their life. Being revitalized by a force
Inexplicable. Inspired by man, and repressed
Only by society.
The true horror of the endless search is
One will never know when a being passes them,
Obtaining a glimpse into raw emotion for that
Miniscule glimmer that will ignite an imbalance
That drives a person to measures unknown.
Ever present but demoralized by rejection...
