Weight

Let the words be few I speak to you for the weight is in their truth and not their number,

and if I said no word at all still my heart would speak to you across all distance if you have a heart that feels as mine.

Can you feel the weight of love?

It's weightless unless your not near ~



What shall weigh as sweet as the words I love you upon my lips if not the press of yours to mine -

and better still than words,

the emotion sealed within that kiss.

Is it a promise,

a temptation or an awakening?

Simply to me,

a dare that says we live,

for kisses have a life outside of time,

suspended in their own moment,

their own breath of life and I want to breathe you in and feel this way always - 

intoxicated by you.



And what shall be treasured more than the singular affirmation

"YES!"

wreathed in the warm of your breath upon my ear.

What is love without sound?

An echoed witness to the first I saw when you shared the depths of your eyes with mine.

Eyes that sparkle and shine with the magic of all my hopes which fate placed hidden there

or blaze with fire in their closeness in the dark of the night as destiny brings us near.

I am so lost,

lost in you...

lead me, 

guide me,

show me the secrets you have cherished in your deepest dreams.

Would you unlock my innermost heart of hearts by sharing yours with mine? 


Can a man love as well as words can tell?

Only by half perhaps

for words are but sounds to awaken our spirits from the bondage of life to the possibility of living.

And spirits free are meant to mingle else why the electric when you are near?

The heady rush of "you" that makes my spirit soar beyond the life that I had known to the miracle of the blind that see.


Some may call this infatuation,

the new,

the undiscovered,

but is this not the feeling of waking from a dream of longing to a dream come to life?

A feeling captured only in another?

The soul rejoices in itself over another,

that we have given them purity in love,

for in love faults are washed away

and only in love could I stand this near the burning flame on the altar of your open heart ~


Kiss me.

Kiss me once forever or kiss me a thousand times that will forever blend into one.  

Make me yours for I already am.

Captured in you,

a you I can't define even as your defining me in a way I've never known.


I love you.

Tell me this is enough for you and nothing else matters,

and I'll seek to answer your deepest dreams...

For if hope is a waking dream,

love is that dream come to life.
