Notes About The Poem

so close and so far - wanting is not enough
------------------------------------------------------

Tangled

I put my hands on the table after you.. 
I drink from your half-empty glass.. 
I sit in your still-warm chair. 
I signal you but I am a candle at noon.. 
I call you but I am a snowflake at sea.. 
Please don't go anywhere without me.. 
I long to be your shadow.
I want to taste you like food.. 
A hundred emotions tangled like hair ..and trivial words..

A very frustrating situation caring deeply about someone and not even being noticed.
