Lost

poem by: P Mason
Written on Oct 08, 2016

Suddenly, you left as quickly as you arrived
In
Between you sent notes, touched, came 
Close enough to taste, smell, kiss, feel, love 
and 
Then vanish.

You turned to ice as quickly 
as
you exposed your warmth and tenderness 
leaving 
me lost, sad, weeping and 
alone.

We talked, touched, felt
warm
with each other. And then you shut down.

One morning you ran to my 
home.
Across a wide river, across a 
marsh
and up my hill only to
stand
never come to my open door as I lay
awake
waiting 
then turned and ran back across the marsh 
and river and away from what I desired.
