INDESTRUCTIBLY ME

Plagued by the intensity,
I know full well
I need to escape.

I blame your eyes.
Those knee-knocking,
breath-taking,
seducing eyes.

Resisting my heart
never works.

Complicated,
Forbidden,
Absolutely real.
Longed for lust,
Stunned by love.

Our future
unattainable,
How savage
is this process
of goodbye.

So tempting
to keep you
captured
in my arms.

Remember me,
my love,
for I will never forget you.

I nurture,
protect,
engulf
myself
in the memories.

That's all I have left.
