Wistful Indulgence

Your eyes seem to speak a thousand words
As you turn your back to me, and walk away.
Is this how it ends?
I thought love was supposed to remain
Buried somewhere deep and dark
Inside your stone cold heart.
But darling, I know you carry fears
That you do not want to share!
I can see your smile
Fade behind the veil of melancholic bliss
As the golden rays of wisdom
Engulf you in a warm kiss...
And your secrets are safe with me!
You're the unattainable beauty...
And my love for you only intensifies..
As I watch you burn in your own flames of freedom!

okay...this is my second ex to a "T:--

turning away, and yes her eyes spoke a thousand words, but none i could see...as she hid behind her melancholy and gave me little chance to prove she was safe with me. i often write about her...and we are still really close...but the eyes staring at each other in the same house...just too much chaos.
i relate and like this poem a lot...and she did tell me some things similar to the feeling that she should have stayed and did burn in her own freedom.

thank you for this poem...inspiring.

''Your secrets are safe with me'' - probably you are blessed with a treasure so deep and so naive! Nice piece of work

Love engulfs us in the attainable bliss when two hearts are willing and able. This was bittersweet. Excellent...:)...............

Love is attainable, only the person you want might not be. :) that doesn't mean love has failed right?
Thanks.
