The Yearning – A Tanka

in

I yearn for your touch

Entwining flesh, heart and soul

White hot in my mind

Knowing this can never be

Eviscerates my essence

    Oh Dom – you know this one resonates with me – lovely. I can each and every syllable and word, metaphorical meaning.

      Thank you Kimberly, I’m glad that it did. Love, as a topic is the most challenging for me to write as I think that it is the most complex topic imaginable, but I guess the difficulty is what draws me to it. :)
