Poem Commentary

This is for my gilfriend. It is so true and I believe so is our love. I am unconditionally in love with her... :) I love you baby

Distant Love

All day, my head spins, I can't stop thinking about your beautiful, and perfect eyes. I wish we could be closer. I wish I could embrace you in my arms and feel your soft warm skin against mine. I can't help but wish you were so much closer. Closer my love, is what I wish to be. It is always you and me. I wish I could press my lips slowly and softly against yours, hoping to find that beautiful, unforgettable spark between our breaths of air. I long to hold you close, face-to-face, breath to breath. We are distant, though that changes nothing of my love for you.
I wish I could lay beside you, hoping you don't feel to uncomfortable, and in fact that you feel more comfortable than ever. 
Then, just as we lay in the silence, my lips meet your neck and holding your body as though I would never let go. I know, that we are distant, and I wish you were so much closer, but honestly, even the thought of this is enough, and knowing you are my love...
You, you are my distant love.

Awww i've felt the same way. it just drives you nuts huh? great job!

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
