Agony

Agonizing … this feeling

          As you’re passing by

 

An innocent look

          An admiring stare

 

Walking by you

          My heart skips a beat

 

Friendliness between us

          Pleasant smiles ‘hello’

 

Nothing more … nothing less

          Wishing for more

 

Sociable words crossed

          Wanting something else

 

Underneath unspoken words

          A passionate desire

         

A flirtatious smile

          Between you and I

 

These unspoken thoughts

          Will there ever be more            

 

I wonder if you know

          I wonder if you feel it

 

Maybe its just me dreaming

          Maybe its just me hoping

 

Wishing you’d make a move

          Should I make a move

 

This unnerving lust

          Will it ever be fulfilled

 

My body aches

          My eyes undress you

 

Craving for your touch

          Yearning for your lips

 

Your hands caressing me

          My hands fondling you

 

Your tongue satisfying

          My mouth pleasuring you

 

Your body deep in me

          Thrusting myself within

 

This hunger for you

          A feeling unlike any other

 

Will you love me

          Can I have you

 

If only once

          Just tonight

 

Will you simply take me

          Can I make love to you

 

I promise not to tell

          No one has to know

 

It will be our little secret

          Lets render to this longing

 

Today we’ll take a chance

          Tomorrow a new day

 

I am waiting for your sign

          Looking for a gesture

 

Is it your admiring stare

          Maybe its that innocent look  

 

I’ll never know as I pass you by

          You’re gone the agony ends

That's so sad, a love so deep yet unreturned...I remember feeling that way, you learn that there are other people out there that might not hurt you as badly, but hey if you feel strongly enough about this person I say go for it, tell them how you feel, it's all you can do really...

anyway, nice poem I liked theline breaks and coloring

The pain beneath these lines peirced me so strong that I almost missed the passion, the love on my first read.

I went through this one over and over again, and yes, it hurts everytime.

Very well composed.

Is this a two-voicer? I LOVE two-voicers! They are the best when performed at poetry slams! You should seriously think about presenting this at a Read or something with someone else because I think it would be a big hit. It's something that everyone can relate to because I think at some point in time, we've all felt this way.

It was something I found "right" to read because I am going through this exact same situation with a friend who is coming to me for help with his break-up. He's bringing forth memories that I had managed to kill and bury again. Their ghosts are no damn fun!

Anyway, I think it's time to let the agony end...

Please read and review some of my things! I promise that I will be eternally grateful.

Oh, I also wanted to say that I loved your color differences. I think that was the reason I thought it was a two-voicers in the first place. I always find that color and style of the writing keeps me interested when plain, same-size, same-color, line-to-line gets a little boring after a while.

Isn't this just the truth? how hard it can be to say what we feel, I liked the layout and the colour

[Bubo]

Oh boy, it really hurts to want something so badly and we can't convey that to the person we want too.
Your words were intense and passionate........and a great layout.
