I have looked hard
for you.
In men with your
stature and features
Unconsciously
Unwittingly
rarely with success.
I relish in the reverberations
our bodies make
as we fall hard
into like
into lust.
I’m infatuated with love.
I adore it.
I do.
but only with
the strain of violins
and with men
that look like you.
Beautiful

Nice. I was anticipating a final “hard” to come at me somewhere in that third stanza though! 🙂

I often find myself desperately looking for the face of my lost love in the faces of strangers as well… It makes it so much harder to forget and move on.
Beautifully expressed. Stay strong little one! (Talking to your heart) 😉
