The Simplicity Of You
It isn't often I get these urges
most of those days have passed us by
but there is something soothing
that happens to the air
when you walk in
awestruck fills my consciousness
as my thoughts come up to breathe
I gasp in your aura and my tongue begins to feed
on your vision
loveliness personified and persuaded
daring eyes dart
then divert from your beauty
but I cannot, not look
amazement you fill my vase
with your lilacs
and your scent of ambrosia
caresses my soul
I'm unbound but cannot move
tied to the complexity
and the simplicity of you

This whole " love " thing is supposed to be simple
but for many of us, it is far far away from simple.

Tim, you are a magic man! Every woman longs for a man with a velvet tongue. Most of the time a man with a tongue like yours is butt ugly and lives with his parents at 40! Here's to you love, a nice looking man with words to match! (What? You didn't think women could be so crass? Well, I'm proof! We can! LOL)

You put in words the most beautiful aspects of love. That almost breathless quality of perpetual awe. Love this one, Tim
