Something Lost...Something Loved Poem by Jack Abdallah

You're that fire, Burns me away

And your beauty sends me astray

Your eyes catch me, In them I gaze

Things disappear, I melt today

Keep us apart, Oh such a shame

Words you told me, Never the same

There's a feeling that this is real

Hearts have layers, Away we peel

Your sweetest kiss that I adore

Never have I wanted you more

Please take me in, We can't deny

The reason I'm lost in your eyes

Or the reason you're lost in mine

Some things are strange, Others divine

Your soft sweet lips each time we kiss

Your smile, Your warmth, Moments of bliss

There's just too much for me to miss

All things I like, Too much to list

It's all of you, From start to end

It's all we feel, We can't pretend

Afraid of love, So I defend

This is my heart's message I send

Nothing keeps us apart for long

Heat between us is much too strong

With you I know where I belong

Stay side by side, Seemingly wrong

Because of time that I let slip

To get love drunk, Let's take a sip

Two hearts bottled and the cap stripped

Into love's puddle I have slipped

Don't let me go, Please break your plans

My sole promise, Meet your demands

As I fall more each time I stand

Alone am I, Beach with no sand

An empty shell, My lonely home

Like a shadow, I dwell alone

As a background to watch time fly

Set an alarm but don't know why

I see no sleep, No need to try

A hopeless mess, With no complies

Shattered like glass, I'm on the floor

And I feel trapped behind closed doors

You're the canvas, Your beauty glows

I stare politely, No one knows

But you see me, Though I'm losing

Moments with you without choosing

Just like footprints are left behind

Wish to look back, See yours with mine

And know it's me you walk beside

Bring out the best of me inside

Then take my hand, Hold tight I'll guide

Two doves a pair, Takes two to stride

For on the bench I can't reside

Just you and I, Hope you decide

Head to the moon so set by night

Like stars, you are. No better sight

These were my thoughts, Now they're my dreams

Maybe wishes of you and me

All seems the same, My eyes I see

You from afar glancing at me

Canvas am I? Now I realize

You live your life and I'm in mine

Define passion so my heart speaks

I can't define, My wisdom leaks

Shoots down my spine as my back creaks

I'm all alone, A mountain peak

Up in the clouds, I admire

Heart is racing, Head is tired

Only feel warmth set by fire

The sparks from us burn desire

Ignites a light and so we see

There's still something for you and me

Please break your plans then break me free

Our journey calls…true destiny
