Reality

Posted: 11th September 2001 by Jab in Poetry

I catch a glimpse of your affectionate smile,

softly towards my direction.

I can see your lips, your sensuous way, behind them a look of guilt,

overcome by feelings, overwhelming with unlimited circumstances.

An embrace at the end of the night,

made my heart filled with joy.

With unexplained feelings rushing through a head of a pin

trying to bypass the heartache and emotional stress

with the overwhelming belief of the existence of love.

Seeing and believing the truth is here, right before my eyes

knowing that in all reality, you and I cannot be.

Not one mountain is too high, nor river to wide,

to express my feelings, I cannot hide.

Whatever it takes, whatever the rules,

whatever the outcome, and whatever the blues.

I cannot let my chance again, pass me by,

right before my very eyes.

Life takes a toll of good and bad, most of what we can control,

Things happen for a reason.

You are more than heaven sent,

An Angel in disguise.

Although you may not agree,

this is something you cannot deny.

Understanding your place,

your heart belongs to someone else

how can this be:

I have seen your smile and your beautiful eyes,

this cannot be true, not for me!

I must deal with all this pain and grief,

accepting reality,

hoping and praying, for that day to come,

that maybe you and I

will become one.
