"The moon lives in the lining of your skin."
~ Pablo Neruda
Like looking
into the eyes of a lover
I find myself spellbound
at the sight of you
I look on
in your direction
every chance I can
like a man
with a beautiful
woman in view
my eyes follow
the curves
and it feels like
you follow me
on my path
do you feel
it to?
the pull
the longing
to be closer
or is it
just a
spell
that
you
have
cast
upon
me
alone
like
a
forlorn
gypsy
may
pickpocket
a fool?
If I
shall be
a fool
then
let it be
yours!
Linking with Imaginary Gardens for Fireblossom Friday
~I Put a Spell on You~
....and her words always do!
The shape you created for this piece suits the subject matter well.
ReplyDeleteSometimes being a fool isn't all bad! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe shape works so well... there is a sense of suffocation in the narrowing lines. But maybe in the end it's better be a fool
ReplyDeleteAs I read, it feels like the spell mother nature casts on me.........maybe it is because of the image accompanying this poem, which I enjoyed very much.
ReplyDeleteIf you are going to be a fool then be a fool to the moon.

I love this simile, and the whole layout is very appealing.
A fool for love.. I seem to have open pockets. Love how you formed your poem!
ReplyDeleteSecretly I think we all would like to stolen aware by an ardent lover. However I am still waiting! Yes, I too loved the form of this poem
ReplyDeleteI guess we are all fools in love ;)
