To the core Dec. 3, 2012

  

I felt it when it all began, something more than I could stand, yet I could to all proclaim, I so completely was to blame, hiding this thing of beauty like a jewel, too bright, too brilliant, some completely true, a gleam glowing in my eyes if not in yours, alas I admit I still adore,

Wishing it real with every breath, daring not to put it to test, to utter it too much aloud would make it vanish like a cloud, I stiffened to your impassioned touch, a fire I now know burned too much, and I wish I could forever keep hold, this jewel of which seemed so bold, I love you now as I always did, but I’m just brave enough to admit, how warm I felt when this close to you, now a chill I cannot undo, distance making the heart yearn more,

For the person I still adore, a loss I feel down to my core, and a voice in my head saying never more, and I know it is not the same, and know down deep I’m to blame.
