When Love is Just Out of Reach: A Poignant Tale of Unrequited Desire

To Katherine


She is as a little hummingbird
Right beyond my reach
And thought you may not see
Our love is like a leech

For when i reach to grab her
She flits beyond my hand
And from the cliff i dare not jump
For fear of Reprimand

For if i were to catch her
I think I'd surely fall
And to the valley floor i'd tumble
The happiest of all

So I stand upon my little cliff
My precious bird with me
But to grab i do not dare
As a quick end i'd surely see.


As a quick addition, due to positive feedback on "My First Time" I'll be penning up something else in the next few days. Thanks for the feedback!
