Here's my new crack at it.

Everytime my eyes rest upon you
I must remind myself to breathe
my heart grows feint when you look at me
enthralled by the secrets hidden within
the twilight fields of fireflies
the glittering skies, that are your eyes
helplessly gazing into their depths
a lifetime could not be better spent

lying so close I'm at heaven's door
with your body wrapped up in my arms
the warmth of your skin touching mine
wishing this moment would never end
I count the beatings of your heart
and measure the rhythem of your breath
smelling the fragrence of your hair
I'm losing myself in your arms tonight

thoughts of you and I, a passionate kiss
the gentle touch of your forbidden lips
pressed ardently thus against my own
your "bubblegum" tongue tastes bittersweet
and your rosy cheeks blushing slightly
you draw me ever closer and tighter
embracing as time stands still for us
we lay content, without a care about.


I'm still not sure I'm happy with it.

ex animo,
Aaron Woodside

Aaron:

Hmmm...I don't know. Well written with a surreal touch, but at this point, it's not convincing. I'm not reading "into" it enough. Hard to explain, but it's what I would call "skimmy".

All right, I know I'm being difficult, but once I figure out why...I may get back to you. Might be too late by then.

I don't know.
