Seeming

How can I stop this dreaming of you
When my heart just keeps on dreaming
How can I  stop my heart seeming of you
When my heart just keeps on seeming
How can I stop deeming 
that you love me at every turn
When sleep won't sleep
and images won't keep
and thoughts run deep
And my attention keeps seeking
Part of my soul keeps weeping
And these pages leaking
And the love of you seeping
what i keep secret inside
Back to bed I wonder
Can I stop seeking

Love that has been lost for some reason just doesn't turn off for the other person. It takes time so they say. Good you shared your thoughts with us. Sara
