I'm Elated

I feel the summer on my skin

as I laze about in lush grass

my closed eyes colored pink

I lay and feel the the clouds pass

 

I open my eyes to see a silhouette

the sun masking her face from view

yet I could tell she was familiar

someone that I already knew

 

moreover some one I loved

quite deeply and quite whole

I could feel her smiling eyes

I could hear her shining soul

 

she leaned herself toward me

using my arm for a bit of brace

her soft hand upon my skin

was enough to cause my heart to race

 

she leans herself in closer

still in her angelic eclipse

electricity rushed inside me

I feel my pulse inside my lips

 

our lips meet in slow suspension

in that moment love is concentrated

this feeling rushes to flood my heart,

our lips softly separate, I'm elated.

Notes

This poem was based on this "the summer on my skin, as I sit on the soft grass, a figure approaches from the sun light. I can't see who she is, but I know I love her. She grabs my forearm to steady herself as she leans in for a kiss. I feel all the blood, and electricity, run into my lips, then flood back into my heart, I'm elated " A little rant of romanticism I made while talking to a friend. I almost posted it as a free form poem rather than this. I don't know which one I like more.
