You Are In My Way Poem by Susan Lacovara

You Are In My Way



Trying to put back the tiny pieces
Of my day
Busied by my menial tasks
You are in my way
In my way

Maybe it's your haunting laugh takes me
By surprise
Could it be a secret stash
The mystery of your eyes
Dare I do a thousand things
To aid in my distraction
Finding I am useless, lost
In magnetized attraction
You are in my way
In my way

And the breeze it brushes against my skin
This is where your touch begins

And the warming Sun creeps around my bend
Bringing thoughts of you that know no end

Fearful of my drowning in the deep sea
Of desire
Pulled by the currents of your waves
Swells growing ever higher
Let the salted sea of you
Wash me wet, today
You are in my way
In my way
Yes, you are in my way
In my way

Will I find your goodness in a green box
On my table

Caught ooff guard and thinking hard
Will his offers keep me stable
And it's all too much
This side of you displayed
You are in my way
In my way
Yes you are in my way

Each and every day
In my way
You are in my way
