the more i yearn,
the more you laugh.
the more i chase,
the further you fly.
the more i need,
the more elusive you are.
where is my pride?
where is shame?
what is this bliss i seek?
what magic is in your name?
if only you'd pause,
you'd see, my ache,
my want, my hankering,
is only for thee.
but your eyes are closed,
your thoughts elsewhere.
i ask for but one instant,
will you open your heart for me?
