Captivation

Have you ever felt captivated by someone? I mean kidnapped, just taken by their eyes and neither can completely escape. I don't know what it is about him and I? We feel drawn together so strongly. Did we meet in another life? Your charcoal eyes are always smoldering they burn with intensity through every one of your photographs. Such vivid, heated passion even in stark black and white. I have never seen lips like yours. I run my fingers across them wishing they were more than paper and shadows. Whatever happens to us in the coming days, I know your image will remain in my mind permanently, forever welded together. Written by Kelly Deschler March 24th, 2015

Love it when oneness turns into obsession

Obsession is an all consuming feeling, but it can also blind and make love seem real when it may not be.

Thank you for reading my poem. I'm glad you enjoyed it, Anthony... Infatuation and lust in a relationship can be blinding. It can deceive and make you think it is love when it is not.

Kelly, PVT Lester E. Deschler, Died July 12, 1944 and Buried at Normandy. Have not forgotten. We will be going there at the end of May 2015. So who is this poem about? Jim

This poem is about someone I care very much for. I wish I knew if he felt the same way about me. Only time will tell... I have not forgotten about my uncle, either. I will send you a Soup Mail with some new info shortly...

Thank you so much, Armand! I do care for him, but I am not sure how he feels about me. He hasn't been speaking to me lately. So, I will have to wait and see what happens from here.

I believe everyone at some point in their lives have an image of what their perfect love or lover would look like.Then when someone appears whose features come close to that image there is a familar face..

Kelly Deschler

I think we do fantasize about a perfect love and when we find them it is like a dream come true. But, it takes more than that for someone to be a true soul mate... Thank you for reading and commenting on my poem. I do appreciate it, Frederic.
