Array ( [sid] => 11269 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Reaching For Heaven [time] => 2003-01-26 01:00:00 [hometext] => This poem is about yearning to be close to someone who displays qualities that are extraordinarily beautiful. [bodytext] => Filled with deep yearning
Admiration for unbridled intellect
Desire ignited by simplicity
Strength of character feeds temptation
As time flows through my fingers like water
Slowly evaporating through the creases
Inclined to pursue this graceful presence
To be close to sweet salvation
Yet it feels like forever
till we will meet eyes again
And insanity invades my mind
Until I can try to harness and bottle
your sweet scent
which strangely lingers in my thoughts
without explanation.
Time to turn the page
And try to come in contact with bliss. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 195 [topic] => 2 [informant] => HeartShapedBox [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )

Reaching For Heaven

Contributed by HeartShapedBox on Sunday, 26th January 2003 @ 01:00:00 AM in AEST
Topic: LovePoetry

Filled with deep yearning
Admiration for unbridled intellect
Desire ignited by simplicity
Strength of character feeds temptation
As time flows through my fingers like water
Slowly evaporating through the creases
Inclined to pursue this graceful presence
To be close to sweet salvation
Yet it feels like forever
till we will meet eyes again
And insanity invades my mind
Until I can try to harness and bottle
your sweet scent
which strangely lingers in my thoughts
without explanation.
Time to turn the page
And try to come in contact with bliss.
