Did you ever have that guy that you just never seemed to get out of your head..................Here's my tribute to him.

Can you feel my thoughts burning through you like hot coals
My longing need to feel you , engulfing me in an eternal flame.
Can you hear my heart sobbing as I think of days past,
Days that I was so close to you,
Days that have evaporated into lonely years since.
To think that I was within arms reach,
But never was I brave enough to put my arms around you.
I could have so easily ravished you,
Attacking you with crazed desire.
I chose to stand still and hide my longing inside.
If I had but one dream of yesterday,
It would be another chance with you.
I would make fear itself shiver,
As it would watch me pounce on you like fresh prey.
The world around us would disappear as my hot kisses melt through your skin,
I would breathe you in and never exhale, holding you inside of me,
Keeping you a part of my life forever.
But I can’t relive what I let happen,
I can’t delete the memory of you fading out of my sight.
I watched you walk away from me and never cried out,
I never let my heart speak her deepest secret to you,
Instead, I made her hold the pain inside and cry herself to sleep at night.
I told my heart that time would erase your face and heal her wounds,
I told her a lie that she will never forgive.
Now, with a decade gone past,
I still make love to you in my dreams,
Waking up cold and lonely,
Wishing the man beside me bared your name.
I don’t know where life has taken you ,
I know nothing of you, except that your image still reflects in my soul.
Yet, this painful regret and burning desire rages more with each passing day,
And as my heart bleeds for you,
And my arms stretch to their ends, trying once again to grasp you,
I wonder if you feel me.
Surely you must,
For the need for you is too strong to be contained in just my body.
The heat of it must singe you every now and then.
