    Stolen Moments

    A passing touch exciting me
    A kiss in the dark when no one can see
    A hug disguised as 'platonic' intimacy
    All stolen moments between you and me

    Stolen they are because you see
    Not one of them belong to me
    It seems i'm just your fantasy
    Until you get back to your reality

    You belong to her, such is my tragedy
    You'd come to me when you are needy
    I do not turn you away, though obviously
    You will never leave her to be with me

    Breakaway and set myself free
    For I no longer want to be your fantasy
    Though at times I may seem happy
    These stolen moments are killing me.

    Ayesha M.

    I used to think the same way when I was married to my ex-wife. My longing for her was just fantasy, she did not need me for the way she continuously kept playing the field. Is it not sad when one realizes their heart will not stop bleeding until after they have said goodbye? FreeBird 02

    Realisation, although sometimes late, always comes about. Although saying goodbye is the hardest thing most times it acts as that final stance where you no longer settle for second class.

    Strong reply! It was really sad to say I would have accepted second second class over no class. That was a few years ago, but it so internally hurts me so. I guess I had to much puppy love. FreeBird 02

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
