Catch me

Catch me

A Poem by kaekay

I hear the sound of your voice,
so far now it seems to be the distant roar of an old engine
I have etched in my memory
The days of my dreams of you in my arms
Dancing through the night,
under the kiss of the stars would I place my lips on yours
Watch you sketch the map of a mystical world in my heart where it is only you and I
And when the dawn breaks I would hold you in my arms,
shelter you from the storms of day
While at sundown I would hear all you have to say
Waiting to lick the salt of your tears and kiss the dust off of your feet

But would you catch me?

Waiting on you became a pattern
Serving you,a song yet loving you unfathomed remained a dream
And day after day, I watched the clouds pass me by
All the time,taking my breath with you
Now every glance would be paid for by a part of me
As I thirst for more of you
To hold you
To cherish the price of your lips
And cherish the price of your lips
And worship the glory of your being 
All you could do was eat away at my heart like a cancer
Steal from me little bits of my spirit
Never anything I wouldn't give willingly but you would rather obtain forcefully,
Seizing
And finally as I fell
Completely at the mercy of your love 
You failed me,and missed me
Would you just catch me and let me serve you

Catch me?

I love this poem, the metaphor of the engine is very powerful, as is your writing style. This has so much emotion behind it, and that is evident. Great job :)
