You are not mine.
You were not since the days our eyes met.
Yet, you invade my dreams
without my permission
And I watch
helplessly
as these technicolour images
paint
a life of their own!
Go away.
Go back into your cocoon…
So I can let my desire
wash away, ebb away,
So that you don’t even exist
in any molecule inside me!
And even if you did come back…
you would never belong to me.
I know… You are not mine.
You were never meant to be!
If only the heart would listen to our words 😀
Nice…need more though.
I like how this poem speaks to that need for possession which weaves its way into platonic & romantic relationships of all kinds. Possession is an irksome word, but what are we if not someone to somebody?
Failing which, your poem makes sense 🙂
