“sometimes I Go Mad” Poem by Lisa Visor

Sometimes I go mad
In the stillness of the night
I reach for you
All the days longing
had set up residence in my mind
moved along my body
Found desire
And lost its time
Because you don’t belong to me
And In the light of the day
I dream of you
And there’s something religious about you
resting your convictions against my tongue
You merging with me
For what couldn’t be
Love
Dreams and desires
dance with faith and convictions
And as the lines blur
I go willingly
Into madness
