Enamoured

If the only place I'll ever touch you

Is in my slumber;

Then so be it

Just to imagine the lingering

Of your fingertips against my skin is

Too much to resist

Again

 

I want you,

When our destinies finally meet,

To fall deep

Into sin and let yourself be complete

With contradicting innocence

And overdue kisses-

Soft and sweet

 

You've done it again, gone

And swept me off my feet

My heart's been pounding in my head

And I'm sure now

That I'd be dead

Without you

 

It's you- the Earth under my feet

And the wind beneath my wings

It's you- and the way you make me think-

Freer than before- It's

minds like yours that

I adore and live for

 

If we were to embrace

In reality, I'd be sure to

Never leave traces

If that's what you wanted from me

I'd do anything to ensure

The absence of future fallacies

 

I speak my poetry

Aloud to you, in hopes

You'll hear it many miles away from here

Even though you're far from me

Feelings flow

With the same fluidity

 

We are connected by invisible strings

Because every time

I hear our song

I feel your heart

Skip a beat and sing along

 

That's why I've been waiting

Here, patiently longing

For the day that I can

Stare into your ocean blues, fingers laced

And say to all the non-believers;

It's true

 

Someone like me deserves someone like you

I'll forever remember all we've been through

The way you keep me on my feet-

Even when I don't want you to

And all the different ways

I've ever said I Love You
