My body shutters
When you speak your heart to me
As if it were starved
From a lifetime of loneliness.
..but it is not..
I have had love
passion
loyalty
And yet when your lips part
to utter the words I so crave
I find myself shivering
in the warmth of your breath.
Does this make me fickle,
fast,
selfish, perhaps?
Or is this just the way of love
to provide the sensation
of purity
and ignorance.
Sometimes,
I fear I may seem insincere
if I say
you are the only one
I have ever felt this for.
And yet, it's true!
I have not felt the love
I feel with you
ever before.
I have never looked into these eyes
your eyes
before this moment.
I have never known
a kiss to taste this sweet
before the moment
your lips touched mine.
And I have never known
your love
until the moment
you fell
for me.
