But there you were
With dancing eyes
And stolen glances.
We were two hearts
Billowing the same tune
Of aching and longing
For more than we had.

Though our bodies spoke volumes,
Those words we didn't say.
And closer we grew,
Always yearning for more.

Our hearts leapt with joy,
New excitement we'd found.
And yet the restraint
Because of those that we had.

Then where did you go?
Your heart turned away.
Have your eyes found another
In this forbidden realm?

Did I mean so little?
Had your feelings no depth?
To casually abandon me,
Leaving me worse than before.

Now can I look into your eyes
Without longing for your touch?
No, I'll walk away, too,
For I'd be a fool to stay.

Yet, my heart still will yearn
For what might have been
Had our hearts been free
To explore the unknown. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 200 [topic] => 2 [informant] => ravenshadows [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )

A strong, powerful and emotional write.
A very good expressed and an excellent piece of poetry. Well done.
Hugs,

often brings, well done . . .
