Near To Me

Feeling my Life force slowly drained, realizing that beautiful women like you are out of my 
reach.  Shading my eyes looking towards the horizon seeing only the roads end and exit 
signs with no doors.  Listening to sermons preached from a radio about God, with no 
conclusions, with advertisements for sinful things.   In pain with no hurt, but suffering just 
the same, seeing visions of you pass my minds eye, flashes of photos, click, click, click, and 
then you are gone.  It would have been best that I had not stopped to view the beauty that 
is you.  Maybe I would not be as I am today, hollow with vapors of fulfillment.  I see life as a 
matter of circumstances and the choices we make.  If I had it all to do again, Yes! I would 
have stopped so my eyes could view the wonder that God had created.  Lusciously 
quenching my life with the invigorating beauty that nourishes the wanting I have of you in 
my mind.  Relishing every image, you hair, your eyes, your lips and your women-ness.  
Repeating my prayer each night with faith, knowing there is a God, praying that two of you 
were created placing one near too me.////
