Unrequited Love

Good Monday morning my dear readers!

Today's topic...Unrequited Love.

Do you have anyone in your life that you love, but are too scared to tell them? Did you ever pass up the love of your life for another? Did you ever have a relationship that you wish was more?

Here are a couple of poems that I've written throughout the years about this very subject. I hope you enjoy.

Haunts and kisses;

Forever Your Courtesan

Am I to forever be your courtesan
To live forever in the shadows
To only be seen when it is convenient
Never to show our affection and love among others?

Am I to forever remain silent to the fact that you are the love of my life
Knowing that I am not your only desire
That there are others at your discarding
And be one of many that share your fondness?

Am I to forever endure this torture of never being called your love
Never to hear that endearment upon your lips
To know that love isn’t within your intentions
And that I am to forever be your courtesan?

For One More Moment

For one more moment in your presence
To gaze into your eyes again as you fasten them upon me
My heart weeps knowing that you belong to another.

For one more moment to feel your soft caress upon my skin
Such an exquisite sensation to be shaped as a sculptor creates a masterpiece
How it pains me to know that there were so many.

For one more moment to feel your lips upon mine
To taste the sweet nectar that flows from your mouth as we embrace
My heart shatters with the knowledge that you had forgotten me.
For one more moment I pray the Almighty brings swift healing of a heart torn asunder.
