The Ugliest

You are a fantastic sufferer, 
A passionate star striker-heightening my tears to happiness
How I wish for merely a moment, that I could forget all my fears
And allow myself to imagine your warm arms around me 
Telling me "Alone you never be in this fight against the maggots"

And I would lay my head against you in peace,
Calmed by your heavenly inhalations
For once knowing, I never fight in the solitary despair of Alone
Reaching peaks of patience, I long to remove memories of the unattainable
Had his green eyes only met my own again...
Yet well I know, the dark intense eyes that see me,
Would admonish and feed me 
With wisdom and excitement far superior than the offerings of kings
That claw my back in lust, and promise impossible things
An obsession far more potent than the wines I never drink

Do not make me cling into the furies of obsession again
Let me know you feel the same
Or else I will lay my head against the rocks,
Cradled by unpredictable seas
Laboring in merciful grief,
I seek the truth
Because whatever the answer, I will always admire you

Leave me alone....
Or Forever be my own

"Demons cry because they know your beauty surpasses the ugliest-- the most glorious."

An ultimatum born from the ultimate strength, love Laura. Your self sacrafice is so vivid and tumultuous, so beautifully fatal. The comfort of warm, strong companionship, to be free worry within the arms of a Champion you know is your own, that's truly heavenly! "A fantastic sufferer...a passionate star striker..." I dream in these lines, and that second stanza is so complete in showing the truth of your needs, so eloquently written Laura...I love this poem of protection! Its a FAV. J.A.B.
