Unrequited Obsession

It often seems so one-sided,
Like my love is unrequited,
It's not my fault he's in his situation,
But I'm the one who gets limited communication.

Backburnered, put on a shelf, just an afterthought,
Sometimes I feel like our love is coming to naught,
Out of sight, out of mind, oblivious and blind,
Focused totally on his world--
Like I am just his fantasy girl. 

They tell me to wait and work on myself---
How long can I live on somebody's shelf,
Like I'm just another possession--
This love is feeling like an obsession!

Time Traveling

Reaching for you across time and space,
I long to hold you in my embrace,
Content to even touch your face,
Feeling you in my sacred place.

The veil gets thinner every day,
As I meditate and pray,
Yet sometimes in loneliness, I sigh--
You answer me with primal cry,
Telepathing, with all your might,
Let me hold you close tonight!

In our dream, content at last,
I come to you, as in the past,
You welcome me into your arms,
Keeping me safe and warm.

In our dream, we sleep tonight,
Holding each other close and tight,
Hearts beat as One, as I silently pray,
The rising sun won't send me away--
Your last words to me are
My love, someday--

You stir in your sleep, reaching for me--
But it is dawn,
And I am gone.
