I Sigh…



Could any pair of eyes be more perfect…



I gaze into you and time disappears

Leaving us hanging on the outskirts

Of a love that threatens to consume



I cannot claim to understand this



Swimming in my sea of thoughts

They drown me...



And I am left with my naked emotion for you my love



Pure and innocent



Beckoning you nearer to me…



Hanging on words spoken

My ears dance at the sound of your voice

My body melts beneath your touch



Inside I beg for more...



I sigh………



Knowing I cannot have.



I accept that I get to take tiny sips of you...

Though I want to drink you



Swiftly,



Freely,



With abandon...



What I wouldn't give

To know you inside and out

Touch the very heart of you



Breath you…



As you breath me…



Slowly tracing your body

Hands memorizing each freckle



Every single scar



Perfectly imperfect

I would love you just as you are



Sigh with me my eternal lover

Cry with me in this struggle



Against flesh



Against circumstance…



As we search for the answers

Pray for just one more sign



Like we need one…



Has anything ever been more clear?

Than the pull between your soul

And mine?



Sinking deep into my angst tonight, love…



I sigh…
