I Still Write

I Still Write

You touch my heart without using your hands
I have no one to tell who really understands
If I love you in silence, there’s no rejection…
Confession: my love, my obsession… suppression is causing depression… forced into no expression….for the sake of visual perception
If I adore you from a distance I won’t get hurt
If I hold you in my dreams, they never have to end
If I kiss you in the wind, it doesn’t feel like pretend
I wanna treat the space between us like… a sacred distance between the stars
This space feels  insurmountable tho…guess no one’s ever been to Mars
Sometimes my pen helps me to let go…Other times, I don’t know
Love you can’t outgrow...So If I have to carry it…
I wanna do it like a pro…that’s why I still write
~Casaundra

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
