I hurt
ok
i hurt
sorry can't say the three magic words.

I want to hold you
put my arms around you
kiss you senseless
but i can't say the three words.

We make love
yes love
not sex
but love.

strongly
passionately
all conclusive
a oneness

Yes i panic after we make love
and i mean love
not just sex
I don't know why i run
but i do.

I can't say the words
i will always be there
wanting you
needing you


Yes....loving you
so why do i run from you?

One person from the start
knew
she is still there
yes. even i was jealous of her.
She had the rapport i wanted


She cared
she loved you
too old for you
yet she pushed me on.

Why?
she knows me better than i know myself
knows my feelings
tells me openly

So can you
why can't i?
why do i run a mile?
i know i run

I know i hurt
i know i cry
i know i want
i know

I want you so much
i ache so much
i would die for you

so why?

Will we come the full circle?
will we part?
i know that you want me
so do i


What is holding me back?
i do not know
if i did i would tell you
tell you so

Perhaps it's the burning red in me
keeps me wanting
keeps me needing
needing you so.

Al - powerful writing. Inner turmoil. Emotional frustration. This conveys so well the difficulties, the turmoil, of love.

This reminded me of something I wrote a while back.

'A Lover's Plea', 27/12/03

I loved you.
I still love you.
I want you,
I need you.
This will never change.
I tried,
I kept on trying,
again and again,
indefatigable,
I pressed on,
never giving up.

Do you want me?
All of me?
Do you want my love,
my passion?
My inner passion,
that burns constantly
for you?

If true
say so.
Just tell me -
give me a sign.
I am yours,
if you want me,
but if you don't tell me
I will never know.
Please,
give me a sign.

Alice,

Such emotion in this piece! It pulled in all directions - fear, hope, hopelessness, passion, regret and consuming love. Really evocative.

i get the impression of a teenagers first real love from this it is very emotive and mildly erotic I also like the short lines gives breath and pace to the words so adds to the emotions.

well done

take care
