This poem is merely one of many attempts to convey and express the longing for the one man who has touched the anatomy of my soul. A man I call Edi; many years my junior, yet, with a soul that reaches far beyond my own.
A thousand miles separate us only physically, yet, via email he has intertwined himself right into my inner blueprint. Only through the grace of God, will we ever meet.
Thoughts of you illuminate my spirit;
Never a flicker of flame, but with
Arching bolts which strike with a force
That disturbs my equilibrium.
My mind races as waves of passion flush over
My pale skin, causing me to gaze upon visions
Of impossible romantic possibilities.
Pathetic is this woman who anticipates the
True rhythm of love, with a man she will never hold.
My imagined discourse of thoughts leave me suffering,
As my lips quiver with the words I shall never speak
to his: "I have loved you more than anybody in this world."

Wow. I really loved this poem. It really got into me. I loved this girl whose 6 yrs my junior. I love her, and she loves me. Though we're both Filipinos, but she's in italy. The only question now was, will we ever meet??? I always pray to God that someday, he may give us the chance to finally see each other in person. I really don't care when. I just wanted to see her. =(

As soon as I started reading this poem, it just touched my heart. WHY? I too, love someone so much that only God will know if my heart AND arms would be filled, by this man. "I have never loved any other, like I love him" I thank you, for this poem that touched my heart.

Your poem has touched my own heart as I strive to deal with my own full heart and empty arms with the person I have loved like no other, but can not be with. Thank you for sharing.

OMG! I feel like those words were ripped out of my soul. I to am in the situation of loving a man who is my junior by several years. who i will never meet because of his life obligations.

This is a poem that touched me so much, because of a lost and impossible cyber love. Never saw him and this poem reflected just my feelings at that moment. Incredible!

In the poem the poet says about the real LOVE, which a person want in reality. The poet shows the real love in few words so that any body can understand that what is the depth of love, tears of love and the sorrow of love.

this poem has touched my inner feelings. it is exactly what has been happening to me right now. love is really great, though sometimes it is unfair. I still love the guy i met two yrs ago and it hurts because he was too far away from me and there are a lot of complications if i told him how i feel. now, all i can do is just to love him as long as i live. no matter what happens, i still hope that time would bind us together.
