inspired by Pablo Neruda's - Tonight I Can Write Once more, to write for you - to hear you call my name and mine alone to feel your body merge with mine for Desire's sake and nothing more I burn now, for those nights those mornings those moments dear when we but stole ourselves away leaving Life behind - to fear nothing - but the fleeting time If I could hold you in my arms with naught between us but Desire as when we first shared love How my Soul would be inspired! Once more, to write for you - C1997 Thomas Lee Rhymes - written 03/13/97
Reason for writing:
Rememberances of a love, which now, seems so very long ago.
The poetry of Pablo Neruda collected my thoughts just enough, for me
to write this poem. For, if I could see her again, it would not be for Love, that
we partake of the making of love, but for DESIRE'S sake only - and nothing more.
Had I learned this lesson, in the beginning with her, perhaps, today, we would
still be lovers.
