FALLING IN LOVE
Your eyes caress me.
I can feel them
As they move over every letter,
Every word,
Every space of my being,
And I gasp.
I feel your breath
flow over the page,
a warm summer breeze
to breathe life
into dormant passions.
Breathe again!
Oh, please,
Breathe again!
I cannot bear the thought
That soon you will finish,
And you will leave,
Perhaps to never return.
Will I not leave my mark on you?
Will I not captivate your heart?
I do not want you to leave,
Please, not yet.
Just stay a moment longer,
Read me,
One more time.
