To Love is Insane

To Love is Insane

My love for you endured
The fading of the sun
Waiting in the sunset
To see your very presence

The heavens shared your smile
The splendor of the crescent
I’m pulled for ever closer
To the dawning of your love

In the starlight of your eyes
Cherished words were left unspoken
Hoarfrost relentless thrust
Continued in right through 

To desire is in vain
And to love is insane

— Barbara Writes, Dec 18, 2009
