Unattainable
My desire is you,
I long for you,
want for you
I dream of you,
streams of you.
My thoughts taken captive by your presence, my fantasy. What to do with you, am I worthy to possess this rare thing. Your pedestal so high, I fear bringing you down, for what will become of me if all my dreams are fulfilled, nothing left to chase after, what would be left to wish after if I have the ultimate treasure, no, I can’t possess you, but I must pursue you. My pursuit gives me hope of reaching the unreachable, seeing the unseeable, so I must chase after you, just for a glance, a touch, the sound of your smile, a taste of your presence, the fragrance of your skin, I breathe you. A moment with you is worth an eternity, I live in my memories of you, in my world where you are the sun, you give me life. You are diamond, you are emerald, you are ruby, you are precious jade, you are black beauty. I will lift you up, I will cherish you, I will protect you, for you are my heartbeat. Without you, I am not.
