I Cried

Fingers held back
lips puckered to kiss
arms aching for you
needing Poetic Bliss

Desire dangling
swollen to a rage
every sense feeling
trapped, caged

That dead feeling
broke thru the crust
confirming tonight
there can be no "US"

I cried. I cried
torrents of tears.
Vulnerable, open,
facing those fears.

I cried. I cried
for every lone night
wanting, needing
you as my light.

I cried. I cried
tears of lament
wailing love's
torment.

I cried. I cried
a relentless flood
tears tracking like
facial mud.

O, I cried. I cried
for all the days
we missed sharing
our lover's craze.

I cried. I cried
for all the nights
you danced in mind
in angelic lights.

I cried. I cried
for failing you
in not being
all I could be.

I cried. I cried
for different worlds
we share in our
spins and twirls.

I cried. I cried
for want to share
yet knowing I can't
be there.

I cried. I cried
myself to fever
wanting, needing
a total griever.

I cried. I cried
in the knowing
this ache shall
continue blowing.

I cried. I cried
for your needs
passions fire,
your bleeds.

I cried. I cried
for how your stance
reaching for solace
in another romance.

I cried. I cried
cause I can't
do, give more
than rants.

I cried. I cried.
a lover's scene
for the love of
my Queen.

I cried. I cried
a river's wash
too deep for a
dam to squash.

I cried. I cried
taking not pause
nor celebrating
or being Santa Claus.

O love. I cried
for miles so far
wishing to be
where you are.

I cried and cried
till eyes were swoll
for every thought
you are the goal.

I cried. I cried
life's falling apart.
Got you so deep
way down in...
my heart.

I CRIED!
