You meet my gaze from across the room
like a wolf stalking its prey.
My cheeks flush
engulfed with thoughts of your tender embrace.
I close my eyes to hear you whisper
My heart begins to race
I glide my fingertips
to trace the lines of your sweet face.
I surrender
to the sting of that beautiful kiss.
I crave you
like a warrior hungers for a hearty feast
after an endless day of battle.
My head sinks into a perfect pile of pillows.
As I close my eyes
the energy flies
I can almost feel your warmth
as tears slide down my face
This love that never seems to go any place
Everywhere my heart begins to race.
