Thanks for checking out my poetry website! Poetry is one of my favorite art forms. I love using poetry to express and release my emotions. I don't write as much as I'd like to... but I do participate in some open mics on occasion. San Francisco is an excellent place to express yourself. If you have poetry you'd like to share send it to
poetry@artispassion.com. Selected poems will be featured in
Contributions!
Love :: a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person

Unconvinced of my emotions
pulling me in multiple directions.
Completely unaware
of how exactly you feel.
I grow distant
with distance
yet fall right back in
with the sight of your beauty
or the feel of your touch.
I struggle
to detach myself
from emotion and thought,
to suppress my appetite
for affection.
With each taste
of your intimacy
I grow more
and more hungry
and am faced
with the unfortunate reality.
Your food is scarce,
your time is limited,
your feelings are unclear.
