    I'm Yearning For You

    I've loved you many times, kissing you, caressing you,
    but only in my mind.
    When I see you, I know exactly what to say;
    how you make me feel and the feeling's so real,
    but my conscious jumps in the way.
    I don't know what I'm going to do.
    I'm so confused, all messed up.
    My conscious says no, but I yearn for you.
    If I thought crying would make it better,
    then I'll cry up a storm,
    teardrops, heartaches, having to pull myself together !
    You don't know how you make me feel !
    I'm yearning for you !
    My heart is opened like an unwrapped seal.
    You're like my favorite candy,
    but my conscious refuses to take a bite of you,
    no matter how my heart demands it !
    Having you would be like an overdose of sugar; not good for me,
    but I yearn for you.
    My conscious says no, it decides for me.
    My heart will settle,
    but I can't stop yearning for you
    It doesn't matter whether I'm right or wrong,
    a sensation of burning, because I'm yearning for you !

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
