Wanderlust D G Williford
Wanderlust… waking and find nothing to dream about
Me thinks that this is just a dream
Nothing on the horizon makes sense
The fading twilight taunts me
Aching limbs thirst for the warmth
For daylight is just a dream away
Kiss me back to the cold stone
Make me one with the names etched forever
Nothing is wary… Nothing is safe
I appear and I am vapor
Take me back to my home
I want the light, I crave the light….
I will never see the sunset again or ever feel the heat on my skin
I am now a creature of the moon… the night… the dark…
Help me…. I am trapped in this body that is not a body… My skin is translucent and I am exposed to all that I abhor.
Won’t you take me in your arms?
Will you not love me for who I am?
Let me give you the kiss.
For I alone have the power to make you be forever.

"I thought it was awesome except I would drop the "my partner" and leave it "for I alone have the power to make you be forever"...." -- Micky.
"Thank you Micky... I like the flow much better now." -- Author.
"I had to read some stuff from the critic who has been brutally critical, yet honest, to my own work! First... the words "Me thinks" really sets the tone in a ridiculous manner; second... the line "this body that is not my body" is redundant and hard to read - On a final note, I do like the style and the piece, very well organized and well-written..." -- Reagan Rothe.
"Rothe... thanks for your honest review. I appreciate all feedback constructive or otherwise. It sets a fire in myself as a writer that I think all of us need from time to time. Keep writing... I want to see what else is trapped inside of you." -- Author.
