Foreboding
To know you is hard.
Such allure is a curse.
Such little time, yet ideal and familiar.
Cool blood runs through my veins.
Struggling with each beat-Heavy thumps.
Pressure in my chest as it pulses up and down.
Can't shed another tear- my soul infected by too much fear.
I want you so bad, but I'm too afraid to lose.
I don't know what to do.
My limbs are light, but my heart anchors me down.
Fear and anxiety paralyze me now-joy in the present is a distant hope.
Why must I fret over each moment's passing?
Do you see me now?
So much hiding-i've been trying so hard.
I'm too scared.
An enticement I can't deny.
Your soul is my color, just my kind.
Knowing you, but not having you, may always haunt me.
Okay, that last line was brilliant. You truly capture the torture of enticement and attraction.
