Longing

A poem expressing the longing for love that can never be realized.

Like a snowflake falling from the sky
Individual, beautiful, and perfect in design
So tempting, for even just a touch
Alas, to do so would prove to be too much

Little dream permeating my head
Intoxicating, beautiful, and exciting in my muse
Selfish, for even just the thought
Agonizing to wonder what you could have brought

Lovely miracle brought into my life
Instant, wonderful, and pleasing
Seeing just your face
Alluring personality showing God’s great grace

Last we met was just like the first
Infatuations not missed by others in the verse
Smiling, chatting, and longing words not said
Allowing nothing to fill the void instead

Longing for someway to show the joy, you give
Insane wishes that we could hold hands
Simple acts of love two people could display
And like the snowflake, it all would melt away
