Axis

axis

My mind might be occupied

With urgent matters---

My thoughts might be niggled

By pressing events—

My reverie might be crowded

By current dilemmas—

But amidst all that…

Your face stays.

At the back of my head---

Haunting me.

Reaching out.

Pushing through the barbed wire

I erected

Boring through---

My steel defenses.

Until I’m almost , almost,

Weak with longing.

How I miss you!

Just your presence--

Would fill my day

Would deem each moment complete.

Just your look

Would melt my knees

As butter would…

Even if it’s

Filled with derision.

Your voice

Caresses my spine

As thistles would.

I could never get enough of it

I could never get enough of you…

How can I then--

GET OVER YOU?
