Softly negative

Yearning twists and turns inside
Stirring senses close beside
Silent longing fills the mind
Urgent strong and soft behind
Flickering wonder warmth ignite
Whispers of deep down delight
Chest hurts now with nails of doubt
Allow within equates without
Thoughts sear in savage random
Love and loss must live in tandem
Unknowing keeps the soul bereft
Yet cannot give cannot be left.
