Seeking Intimacy

Rooted but branches Swaying in the wind Reaching Extending Touching nothingness Lost in a vast expanse Yet waiting in a vacuum Alone Aloof Reflexion I thought I would never find the time For someone to share my life Time now has a different feel to it Suddenly I yearn for distraction For sharing For caring Suddenly I feel bitterly alone Conscious of my lack of intimacy That closeness That port to call home AP: 3rd place 2020 Posted in April, 2018

Line, this poem makes me want to come snap you up, grab up up, throw you in the air, hear you laugh, and fly you home with me, so we can play, and laugh and sing.
