Love Poem: I Cannot Bear

I Cannot Bear

Whose hands have placed their loving touch?
I dare not even imagine
Whose lips have tasted and tongues have brushed?
I dare not even fathom
Whose eyes have gazed deep within your soul?
I dare not ever dream
For my senses rise, losing all control
As my mind gives into scream
Oh temptress, fate has dealt a wicked blow
As I so do well adore thee
But, distance placed between us, grows
Leaving our hearts and bodies empty
