Is this the feeling?
Heart yearning
For what is not,
Action and thought
Ruled by one
And one alone?
My breath is bated
My thoughts constricted,
My soul afloat
Like a sailing boat,
My heart beats
In spasmodic fits.
You rule my head
As I lie in bed.
I gaze at the stars as they glow
And the tears flow.
I wish you were near,
I wish you were here.
Is this the feeling?
I seek a meaning
And I get it not.
The flame burns hot.
I know not what I feel
But I know it’s real.
Is this the feeling?
The feeling of love?
