Poetry: Tormented

by Erica Thomas

Created on: December 12, 2009

desire rips through my veins

creating those tantalizing pains

body aching for that touch

the most throbbing, sensational crutch

needs never to be fulfilled

Pandora's Box must always stay sealed

epic wars of will to fight

anything to avoid that fire blight

temptation must be endured

cannot allow ourselves to be lured

dance to this lyric alone

swaying along this littoral zone

waves launder away your face

the sea mist saving me from disgrace

yields the need of clarity

reason drowns the call of rarity

in the crash I hear your song

but these feelings I cannot prolong

I give you this last caress

this intense passion must be repressed
