Pelgris

I’ve been looking for wanting
And finding not having
Until needing gave way to reading
Then finding became looking
And looking became thinking
Then thinking became flirting
And flirting became you

What I was looking for was replaced by who you are
Because who you are is what I want but can’t have
Not completely
Though in places it could be argued I get all of you
But I’m always waiting
Always wanting
Spinning fantasies, hoping they spin you round

All my yearning
All my needing is replaced by the thought of you in my arms
I only contemplate the futures with you in them
In whatever form that you allow that to take
Because having searched for so long
There is no destination without you
