The Love Deep In My Mind

I think it is gone as a physical thing you can touch, but in the


Mind it continues, in a different sphere, for the one who keeps it in


the


Most deepest places of their mind.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


 


There was a time that lives in my mind.


A time when I knew.


I knew a love, that was totally obsessive,


And it controlled every inner part of me.


 


Crazed and insane,


yet I loved its sensations,


all the same.


 


I never wanted to let it go.


I wanted it to always flow,


into my every core.


 


To give me life,


I thought, I had been, so desperate for.


 


Alas, came the day.


I had to let my love go its own way.


For time would not stay to keep this love the same.


 


I will never forget.


It lives in my mind yet.


To bring me back to those days.


 


Until the end,


I will always have my loving friend.


No matter the distance that keeps us at bay.



 


In the deepest,


farthest,


most secret parts of my mind.


I hold a love that time cannot find.


A love I can visit, deep in my mind.


Until this life's light, no longer shines.

Love is never simple, yet it can be. Many times, I write poems from imagination or about other people and events that I see, my poetry isn't always directly about me personally. If that makes sense? lol

Great poem, i know the feeling about obsessive love, i think it is my healthier to keep it in the back of our minds.

I very much relate to this poem. I've had a similar "love" that has tortured and tantalized me for over 16 years! Overall I consider it a blessing to have experienced it at all even though I've had to move beyond its grip.
Great poem!

Thank you Grae, the formating didn't come out so good, when I copied it in here.
However, I am glad the message and feeling did.
This poem was written 10 years ago, believe it or not. Since then, my muse has had holidays that I didn't want it to have.lol

I think there are a lot like you that hold captive in their minds deep feelings for those of the past. Best not to let them out though! Apart from using them to write inspirational poetry, of course. - Nice one, Bonnie - cheers, Grae.
