    Homeless


    Two days your scent has lingered
    upon my suffocating flesh...
    eclipsed by life's daily trials
    yet steadily reminding me
    of how damn much I need you.
    (I think of you too often
    and much too deep and real)
    I wonder why I can't see you
    with unfeeling eyes.
    I realize the heart knows
    only what unwise vision allows,
    but deep inside I feel you...
    you're a part of me somehow.
    Time elapses,season's change,
    years come and they will go
    but one thing remains the same...
    my yearning will not rest
    until I am at home in your arms.

    Wow...I rlly like this. I especially like the title you chose for it. It is not the kind of "homeless" one usually thinks of. You used that word cleverly to get extreme emotion across without filling up pages and pages. Well Done

    Well written and brimming over with emotion. If you dont mind me saying..., I think it would do quite well without (I think of you too often and much too deep and real) Maybe try to incorporate that into the poem rather than leaving it hanging there in parethesis. Other than that..., I really liked it. You have a wonderful talent.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
