My Emotions- My Ode to You
By Tifa L.


I miss you.
Your touch, your words, your voice--
that I haven�t heard yet but it�s future timbre�s echo across my soul.

I wonder what would it be like to hold you-
to touch you--
to kiss you.

The thought sends shivers down my spine.

Knowing that I don�t know you yet, but yet I want to plunder the
depths of your soul anyway...

If you�d let me.

Let me catch your dreams--
let me see your fear--
let me take your pain and fill it with the sweet succor of my Love.

Never before have I felt so open--
so free--
so wanton--

and it�s all for you.

I wonder what this dizzying infatuation is--
this hungry gnawing needy want for some sort of contact with you.

I want to soar on high...
On wings of ecstasy�
with you.

I want to tell you�
to express to you what�s in my heart�
to tell you the emotions that dwell in my soul but�

but� I can�t.

And so I retreat into the abyss of my shame�
and I decide not to tell you; �I love you,�
though I CRAVE to tell you... but I keep it all in because you�ll
never know,
so I hide yet again,
becoming an enigma�
becoming a part of the shadows�
...until the one day that I am forced to confess.

Until then�
I can only look up at the stars and hope for true love�
hoping for you to warm my cold bed�
hoping for your love�
your touch�
your embrace�
your kiss�

hope.. hope and pray for the day when�

my life goes right�

my days are bright�

... until the day that you are mine...

... if only.

Wow, I can never write like that. This poem is practically a song. I think it's great. Great use of words, giving the poem more depth. I also like the dramatic ending. My favorite part of the poem is probably the third last paragraph(the one that starts with "And so I retreat into the abyss of my shame"). Not sure why I like that part the best... maybe because it's the climax of the poem?

That's a really great poem Tifa. Really emotional, and great use of vocabulary. I really liked the whole section which started with "And so I retreat into the abyss of my shame". I'm looking foward to reading more of your work.
