It must have been
a suggestion of some
small quality
that attracted you.

Did I talk in my sleep,
ask for you,
ask for your company?

I doubt it, yet,
I cannot deny
here you are
beside me,
whether in dream
or day.

I am tied
to your intensity.
You the appealing
carrier of legend.

And somewhere,
underneath,
lives a dragging pain
where home-spun
philosophy groans.

Stella: You write like someone in love with darkness, shades and ambiguities; how will you know if you get what you want? Better yet; how will you want what it is you get? This poem and the one about death opening automatic doors illustrate how well you know the answers.

I like this one Stella. Lovely enigmatic cadences and that hint of the mysterious that keeps you hooked.

I've been trying to work this one out and still failed (-: Oh well, I like it, and we don't have to 'understand' everything do we.

i like the structure and short sentences. I think I will write a poem on ghosts. It is already written in my mind.
